The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on earnings, education, skills and jobs raises key challenges for inequality and the design of policy responses. The aim of this project is to examine a broad set of inequalities in employment, human capital, earnings and family income over the last five decades in a coherent framework across North America and Europe. It will provide a major source for comparative research on inequality trends and on how the pandemic has affected them. There are 17 country-based research teams involved with extensive experience researching economic inequalities. Each team is responsible for their country-specific data, which will draw on household surveys and administrative records, but all analyses are coordinated across countries to provide harmonious treatment of variables and estimation. The project is composed of four related research strands. The first is to understand changes in a wide range of economic inequalities before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The second will examine labour market inequalities in detail. The third will highlight the role of education and training for those who do not go to university and focusses on the differences in educational systems and the impact on inequality. The final strand will look at the tax and welfare systems and their effectiveness at addressing family income inequality. The key outputs of this project will be a set of country-specific papers on the evolution and drivers of income inequalities pre-and post-pandemic; two cross-country synthesis papers, and a policy brief for each country. We will organise an international conference for academics and policymakers to conclude the project. This project will highlight key differences and commonalities across 17 economies, deepen our understanding of the drivers of inequality and the impact of the pandemic and provide evidence needed to design appropriate policy responses to inequality in the post-pandemic world.

新冠肺炎疫情对收入、教育、技能和就业的影响，给不平等和政策应对方案的设计带来了关键挑战。该项目的目的是在一个连贯的框架内审查北美和欧洲在过去50年中就业、人力资本、收入和家庭收入方面的广泛不平等。它将为不平等趋势和大流行病如何影响它们的比较研究提供一个主要来源。有17个国家的研究小组在研究经济不平等方面拥有丰富的经验。每个小组负责各自国家的数据，这些数据将利用家庭调查和行政记录，但所有分析都是跨国协调的，以协调处理变量和估计。该项目由四个相关的研究线索组成。首先，要了解新冠肺炎疫情爆发之前和期间各种经济不平等现象的变化。第二部分将详细考察劳动力市场的不平等现象。第三个将突出教育和培训对那些没有上大学的人的作用，重点放在教育制度的差异和对不平等的影响上。最后一条线索将着眼于税收和福利制度及其在解决家庭收入不平等问题上的有效性。该项目的主要产出将是一套关于大流行病前和大流行后收入不平等的演变和驱动因素的国别文件；两份跨国综合文件；以及每个国家的政策简报。我们将为学者和政策制定者组织一次国际会议，以结束该项目。该项目将突出17个经济体的主要差异和共同点，加深我们对不平等的驱动因素和大流行病的影响的理解，并提供必要的证据，以制定应对大流行病后世界不平等的适当政策。
