Conditional cash transfer (CCT) programs
are becoming a popular tool for alleviating short-term
poverty and reducing the inter-generational transmission of
poverty. More than 30 developing and transition countries
have implemented these programs, providing incentives to
poor households to make investments in the human capital of
their children. Programs vary in scale, transfer size,
conditionality's, eligibility, and implementation
features. This report is structured around five chapters as
follows: the first chapter gives an overview of the program,
the context in which it was implemented and available
evidence on the impacts of the Female School Stipend Program
(FSSP) as well as other CCTs. Chapter two focuses on the
questions this evaluation sets out to answer and the methods
and information used to answer them. The third chapter
presents the results from the analysis and is structured
around three evaluation questions regarding average impact,
heterogeneity of impacts, and spillover effects. Chapter
four performs the robustness checks of the findings,
examining whether they are sensitive to preprogram trends,
measurement error, endogenous compositional changes, and
crowding-out effects. Finally, the conclusion discusses the
implications of the results, some limitations of this
evaluation, and areas that require further work. |
