THE IMPACT OF THE PANDEMIC ON POVERTY

Luis Ayala Cañón / Antonio Jurado / Jesús Pérez Mayo

This paper aims to analyze the impact of the pandemic on different situations of poverty, which include characterizations that go beyond its usual consideration as a relative and monetary phenomenon. We review different datasets that allow us to examine three different approaches to poverty: monetary and relative, material deprivation and lack of income. The results show that the situation has worsened especially in households that were already worse off before the pandemic began.
