Our new interactive, "Determination and Resilience amid COVID-19 Uncertainty," provides a close look at how the pandemic impacted the livelihoods of five members of the Self-Employed Women’s Association (SEWA) in India. Using rich interview data from an IFPRI phone survey, Claudia Ringler et al. share the stories of how Budhiben, a hand-pump repairer; Gauriben, a rural homestay manager/entrepreneur; Rekhaben, a farmer; Shantaben, a street vendor; and Ayeshaben, a snack shop owner; coped with the challenges of lockdowns.
