Risks & Vulnerability

Briefing/policy papers

Written by Eva Ludi, Kate Bird

People everywhere face risks, but poor people, especially those living in rural areas and depending on agriculture, and those living in tropical ecologies, are more exposed to a wide variety of risks than the non-poor. For this reason, in this Brief we focus our illustrations largely on the risk and vulnerability experienced by rural people living in poverty.
