Early effects of the Covid-19 lockdown on children in north-western Bangladesh
Using data collected through a structured telephone-based survey in north-western Bangladesh during the height of the pandemic, we present evidence on the effects of household specific shocks on rural children induced by the COVID-19 lockdowns. We focus on three child-related outcomes: time use of children during school closures, plans regarding children’s future schooling, and the incidence of child marriages. We find that respiratory illness an…
Labor Market Information and Parental Attitudes toward Women Working Outside the Home
Women’s paid-work participation remains low in Pakistan.

A randomized controlled trial was conducted within commuting distance of export-oriented garment factories in rural Pakistan. Provision of information was found to be effective in positively chan…
Female labour force participation and dowries in Pakistan
Dowries are prevalent in South Asian countries, despite legal bans.

The estimation results show a negative association b…

We conducted a household survey specifically de…
