• Shocks, Consumption and Income Diversification in Rural Ethiopia (2012, background): “However, most studies do note at least a partial ability to insure, and the most detrimental shocks seem to depend quite heavily on context – for example in Pakistan, Heltberg and Lund (2009) find that health and other idiosyncratic shocks exert a high cost on households.”
• Rising Food Prices and Coping Strategies: Household-level Evidence from Afghanistan (2010, background): “Heltberg and Lund (2009) demonstrate that various types of shocks can induce Pakistani households to reduce food intake.”
• Coping with shocks in rural Ethiopia (2013, methodology): “Similar to Wagstaff and Lindelow (2010) and Heltberg and Lund (2009), the paper relies on cross-section data and a retrospective shock module to analyse the shock-coping strategy link.”
