The population of the Lao PDR is predominantly rural. While rapid economic growth has accelerated the urbanization process over the past three decades, 63 percent of the population continue to live in rural villages. With relatively limited access to infrastructure, basic services, and employment opportunities, rural areas experience a greater incidence of poverty than do urban areas. Most of the rural population continue to derive a livelihood from subsistence agriculture, albeit with an increasing rate of commercialization. Since 2020, the Lao economy has faced a series of shocks, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which exacerbated macroeconomic instability and contributed to severe inflation. In December 2022, consumer price inflation reached a two-decade high, largely due to the decline in the value of the kip and rising global commodity prices. In order to understand the economic and social impact of these shocks on rural livelihoods, the World Bank conducted a qualitative community survey. This brief presents the main findings from the qualitative community survey.
