Impact of Self Help Group membership on the adoption of child nutritional practices
Self‐help groups (SHGs) are used as instruments for changes in health‐related behaviour. We evaluated the impact of the Health and Nutrition Strategy of JEEViKA on the dietary practices of infants in rural areas of Bihar. Propensity score matching revealed that the probability of exclusive breastfeeding until 6 months and starting complementary feeding after 6 months was higher by 5% and 3%, respectively, if the respondent was an SHG member. The …
Does improved cooking fuel empower women? Evidence from India
Reliance on biomass fuel remains high in many developing countries, like India. Shifting to clean fuel has widely recognized benefits for women in saving time, improving health, and creating a better environment. Other benefits to women in the form of increasing empowerment are a relatively under‐researched area. Using data from the nationally representative National Family Health Survey (2019–21) in India, this study uses endogenous treatment ef…

Although the coverage of cash transfers was wider than that of food subsidies, respondents receiving cereals and pulses under the Public Distr…

Ultramodern Contraception’ Re-Examined
The family planning literature considers behavioural family planning methods 'ineffective' because their users are not motivated to control their fertility.

This elite group has the skill…
Are women self-help group members economically more empowered in left-run municipalities
Who controls the income earned by members of women's self-help groups (SHG) from group activities – the women or their husbands? The answer indicates one dimension of the level of economic empowerment attained by SHG members. This paper examines whether identity of the person controlling the income earned depends upon the political party ruling the municipality where the SHG is situated. Two parties are considered – the Left Front, a coalition co…
