Resumen
Descripción
In this paper we examine the impact of commodity price volatility on nutritional
attainment of households at the nutritional poverty line in Bangladesh. We focus on the
first two moments of the distribution of nutrition and consider the differential impacts across socio-economic groups within the country. We also examine the direction and magnitude of the shift in these moments as a result of implementation of special
safeguards measures aimed at preventing import surges.
