Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed many inequities, both within countries and across the world. The least developed countries and those affected by fragility and conflict have been particularly hard hit by the economic impacts of COVID-19, experiencing unprecedented declines in commodity prices and remittances and a collapse in earnings at the household, firm, and national level. These shocks are exacerbating existing vulnerabilities in these fragile contexts and threaten to reverse decades of progress.
