## Abstract

Project Summary
The project, "The economic and social impact of COVID-19 mitigation policies: A cross-
country analysis of macro events," will explore the economic and social effects the mitigation
policies and information environment that COVID-19 spawned. We will link those policies to
data from ongoing household-based panel studies from 10 countries and rich administrative
data from an eleventh. We will exploit the substantial intra and inter-country temporal and
geographic variation in non-pharmacological intervention policies induced by the COVID-19
disease. That variation, coupled with pre-COVID baseline levels or long-running trends in the
outcomes we will study, will identify the effects of the mitigation policies.
