Abstract:
The complexity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis remains a challenging subject to define and estimate. In this paper, we will reflect on the impact from the perspective of demographic indicators, considering how the crisis has affected family well-being, especially in relation to dependence on remittances. We will also address the problematic aspects caused by the crisis on social and economic mobility, as well as the perception of state responses to the pandemic, from a comparative perspective. This includes examining the support interventions provided to families, the public policy measures adopted, and the responses of public health systems in Moldova and Romania. Econometric analysis of these effects offers a detailed understanding of how COVID-19 has influenced demographic dynamics in both countries, facilitating the development of policies better suited to the post-pandemic context.
