Summary: | The GeoLAC repository contains three
maps of the Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region
that aim to inform policy (governments and the World Bank)
around the Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) crisis. These maps
present three new vulnerability indices that tackle the
following topics: (1) expected employment losses in local
labor markets; (2) structural socioeconomic vulnerabilities
at subnational levels to various forms of shocks (economic,
health, etc.); and (3) socioeconomic vulnerabilities at
subnational levels specific to the COVID-19 crisis. |
