Résumé	Asset Poverty Trap Analysis tests whether households face nonlinear asset dynamics that can trap them in persistent poverty, using panel data on what households own rather than on what they earn. Developed by Michael Carter and Christopher Barrett (2006), the approach estimates the asset recursion — how a household's asset stock this period maps into its stock next period — and looks for multiple equilibria. When that mapping is S-shaped, there is an unstable equilibrium, the Micawber threshold, below which households converge toward a low-asset trap and above which they accumulate toward a higher equilibrium. This yields a dynamic asset poverty line and a structural reading of who is poor and likely to stay poor.	Resilience Measurement and Analysis is a family of methods for quantifying the ability of households and communities to withstand, recover from, and adapt to shocks and stresses while maintaining or improving their well-being, especially food security. Exemplified by the FAO's Resilience Index Measurement and Analysis (RIMA-II) and informed by Béné and colleagues' critical conceptual work, it treats resilience as a latent capacity inferred from observable assets, access to services, and adaptive behaviours, estimated statistically and tracked over time to inform and evaluate resilience-building interventions.
