description |
This paper describes a framework of
supply and demand factors that could affect birth
registration coverage rates, particularly in the context of
social transfers. Within this framework, a review of the
empirical literature (academic and grey) was conducted on
incentives that have been demonstrated to increase birth
registration coverage. More than two hundred articles were
reviewed, and forty-two (twenty-three academic and nineteen
grey) were selected for this study based on relevance. The
literature encompassed evidence from Asia, Africa, and Latin
America on linking birth registration with social transfer
programs, such as cash transfers, which have resulted in
increased birth registration rates. The methods in the
literature on incentives for countries to increase birth
registration coverage vary. There is a lack of scholarly
research on incentives to address both supply and demand
barriers for birth registration and a need for more robust
literature on the topic. |
