Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Development Politics, grade: 98, , course: Public Health, language: English, abstract: Although community development begins with identifying unmet needs, tackling poverty encapsulates a complex web of multidimensional social and economic challenges. These webs often have intersecting triggers and drivers of deprivation. Social exclusion corresponds with health disparities, socioeconomic destitution, and other forms of social injustices. Given that the degree of marginalisation is directly proportional to poverty, vulnerable groups are prone to severer effects of the ongoing 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The unprecedented nature of COVID-19 lockdowns may further complicate community development agendas, thus escalating poverty rates across global societies. Socioeconomic disruptions, health devastation, and uncertainties underscore the need for multi-stakeholder engagement to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable groups through the COVID-19 crisis.
