    This study offers a comprehensive picture of the rural economy in Bangladesh during the first three months of the lockdown period in comparison with the pre-COVID-19 situation. Using a nationally representative sample (of 2,312 rural households from 62 villages in 56 districts) known as the Mahbub Hossain Survey sample, we conducted a telephone survey in June 2020. Our descriptive and regression analyses suggest that, during the survey period, the rural economy experienced several adverse impacts from the containment measures, such as a delayed harvest, difficulty in selling farm produce, labor and material input disruptions and cost increases, and reductions in remittance receipts and non-farm business sales. Rural households had to reduce their food consumption and receive food support from the government and cash support from the private sector. Vulnerability was especially apparent in households with a head who was female, less educated, young, or casual labor. Livelihoods varied significantly among geographical areas according to the concentration of the infection and less significantly according to the stringency of the lockdown measures. We also found that rural households preferred cash or product support, rural work or employment support, and cash assistance or soft loans for farm inputs and business inputs at the time of the survey.

    Despite the well-documented benefits of improved sanitation and washing facilities, a considerable number of people, even in middle-income countries, still lack access to modern sanitation and home-based bathing facilities. This paper leverages household budget survey data from two Central Asian countries to investigate the barriers to improved adoption of sanitation and washing facilities. The study finds that in Kazakhstan, households with higher incomes generally have better sanitation facilities. Households led by married individuals have better facilities in both Kazakhstan and the Kyrgyz Republic. The average adoption rate in a sub-province also contributes to an increased household-level sanitation and washing facilities uptake. This suggests that peer influences represent an important mechanism underlying household behavior. The role of infrastructure is significant. Access to piped water increases the probability of adoption of modern sanitation and washing facilities in both countries. Primary barriers to the adoption of better sanitation and washing facilities by rural households include the lack of necessary infrastructure (piped water and centralized sewerage).
