Abstract

This article examines the impact of the Social safety net program (SSNP) on poverty, food security and standard of living by focusing on types and features of SSNPs along with socio-economic and demographic characteristics in one enclave (Dahagram–Angarpota) and one ex-enclave (Dasiar Chhara) areas of Bangladesh. Quantitative and survey research methods were used for the study. The results show that amount supported under SSNPs, duration of SSNPs support and payment interval are the significant factors of poverty, food insecurity and standard of living. The results also identify some significant demographic and socio-economic factors of poverty, food insecurity and standard of living. Overall, this study suggests that a higher amount SSNPs support, longer duration of SSNPs support and shorter payment interval of SSNPs should be taken into consideration when redesigning the SSNPs. Furthermore, the significant demographic and socio-economic factors should be addressed in the policy formulation for improving poverty, food security and standard of living of the poor households in Bangladesh.
社会安全网项目对孟加拉国贫困、粮食安全和生活水平的影响
本文考察了社会安全网计划(SSNP)对贫困、粮食安全和生活水平的影响,重点关注了SSNP的类型和特征,以及孟加拉国一个飞地(达哈格拉姆-安加尔波塔)和一个前飞地(达西亚查哈拉)地区的社会经济和人口特征。本研究采用定量研究和调查研究相结合的方法。结果表明:支持金额、支持持续时间和支付间隔是影响贫困、粮食不安全和生活水平的重要因素。结果还确定了贫困、粮食不安全和生活水平的一些重要的人口和社会经济因素。综上所述,本研究建议在重新设计ssnp时应考虑更高的ssnp支持金额、更长的ssnp支持持续时间和更短的ssnp支付间隔。此外,在制定政策以改善孟加拉国贫穷家庭的贫穷、粮食安全和生活水平时,应考虑到重要的人口和社会经济因素。
