Summary View help for Summary
The project takes advantage of two unique randomized experiments to study the impact of education on early fertility and child health in Sub-Saharan Africa (specifically Kenya and Ghana). It collects detailed data on students several years after an initial intervention. In Ghana, the study cohort is followed yearly and detailed interviews are collected in 2012, 2015 and 2018. Datasets contain information on attitudes, cognitive and noncognitive skills, and preferences.
