Resumen
Many studies have revealed the importance of taking the ex post and former poor into account in designing sustainable poverty reduction policies. With data from the 2015 household standard of living survey (ENV2015), we use the Chaudhuri, Jalan and Suryahadi model (2002) to measure the vulnerability to poverty of rural households in Côte d?Ivoire. Our work reveals that 34% of households are vulnerable while 25% are poor. The analysis of the influence of certain factors on this vulnerability was based on a tobit model. We come to the conclusion that farm and trade households are more vulnerable than those in industry and services. Also, households with a head of at least secondary education are less vulnerable than those whose head is at most at the primary level. Finally, contrary to many studies, we find that access to credit has a bad influence on the vulnerability of rural households to poverty. The origin and use of these rural credits would explain this last relationship.
