The paper estimates the impacts of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program on men and women who were enrolled in the program for up to 1.5 years when they were between ages 12.5 and 14 and are currently in their early twenties. The analysis finds evidence of impacts on marriage and fertility for women: participation in the program is associated with delay in marriage and the first birth of approximately one year and six months, respectively. No impacts are found on educational or labor market outcomes or proxies for economic welfare. Further, there is no strong and consistent evidence of changes in empowerment or gender norms. 2021-04-19T12:35:45Z 2021-04-19T12:35:45Z 2021-04 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/103941618019913520/Long-Term-Impacts-of-Short-Exposure-to-Conditional-Cash-Transfers-in-Adolescence-Evidence-from-the-Philippines http://hdl.handle.net/10986/35439 English Policy Research Working Paper;No. 9617 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper East Asia and Pacific Philippines
