First, social service coverage has increased substantially, leading to a general improvement in opportunities. Second, the gaps in access probabilitie…
Impact Evaluation of Chile Solidario
This article evaluates the impact of the Chile Solidario anti-poverty programme. The evaluation is based on propensity score matching and a difference-in-difference estimator along with databases of Social Assistance Committee forms.
