    Description

    ‘Getting to zero’ – the post-2015 development aim of eradicating extreme poverty by 2030 – involves not just ensuring that people currently in poverty escape from it but also that people do not fall into poverty in the future. Is there a ‘resilience threshold’: a line which, once people are living over, means that they are highly unlikely to live in poverty in the future? If such a threshold exists, what form does it take? Is it dependent upon achieving a certain level of income/expenditure; a particular number of years of education or access to a particular type of (informal) insurance arrangement? Using data from Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania and Uganda, this Oxfam GB and Chronic Poverty Advisory Network research report explores the multi-dimensional issue of resilience.

    Export search results

    The export button (to the right?) will allow you to export the search results of the entered query to a CSV file. To export the items, click the "Export" button.

    There are two options to select the items you want to export to a CSV. Either you export all results from a search query, or you select a subset of items from the search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" in the Export menu.

    After making a selection, click the 'CSV' button. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to 'CSV'.

    The amount of items you can export is limited, but authenticating will increase this limit.
