Abstract:
People in fragile environments face various shocks that negatively affect their nutrition. Many governments put policy mechanisms in place to promote recovery of households after adverse shocks; however, resilience is difficult to measure because some apparent recovery could be the result of statistical randomness and reversion to trends. This paper demonstrates a new approach to measuring nutritional resilience in a population. As our starting point, we use the common definition of resilience as ‘recovery after decline’, but also require that the degree of recovery should exceed stochastic expectations.
