Outline Background on Development Resilience Data Insurance and Household Resilience Insurance and Aggregate Resilience Conclusion Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion Introduction

Barrett & Constas (2014) Proposes a theoretical framework for “development resilience” Implications for measurement: Recommends a moments-based, probabilistic approach Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion Development Resilience

Cissé & Barrett (in production) Empirical implementation of B&C theory of development resilience Builds on poverty measurement, poverty dynamics, poverty traps, and vulnerability literatures Resilient = a high probability of maintaining acceptable level of well- being Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion Development Resilience

Insurance & Resilience Use a development resilience approach to evaluate impact of IBLI on well-being Explore household-level impacts of insurance Construct aggregable FGT-type measure to explore resilience by subgroup Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion Contribution

Data Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion IBLI 5 rounds of panel data (Marsabit) 800+ households HH demographics, livestock accounting, income, consumption 2011 drought (before R3)

Data Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion Constructed Variable Shock (drought dummy) = 1 if predicted livestock mortality > 15% Instrumental Variables Insurance Coupon Coupon * Predicted Livestock

Data Intro/BackgroundDataIdentificationAggregationConclusion Outcome Variables Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) in cm Tropical Livestock Units (TLU): 1 TLU = 1 cow, 0.7 camel, 10 sheep, or 10 goats

Negative impact of shock on resilience.Combining mean & variance allows us to see positive impact of insurance on resilience, even in non-shock years. Having insurance during a drought years further increase TLU resilience (not significant for MUAC).
