Social Exclusion in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Global Crisis

The note is structured as follows: section two provides a brief discussion of the data; section three presents the Life in Transition-Supplemental Modules (LITS-SM) findings on the impact of the crisis, while section four presents the new profile of social inclusion indicators. How risk of poverty, material deprivation and low work intensity are inter-related, as well as how they are related to a consumption-based poverty measure is explored in section five. Two other dimensions of social inclusion, housing and long-term unemployment, are examined in section six. Section seven provides some concluding considerations.
