The study further explores the psychosocial mechanisms that made a multi-faceted economic inclusion intervention highly effective, expanding our earlier work https://t.co/URj8NrJcpT. Kuddos to @catcthomas for driving the mechanism experiment at the core of this new piece!
How to empower women in extreme poverty? New results from Niger: boosting interpersonal agency had broader effects than promoting personal initiative. Highlights the importance of “cultural wisdom”.

Cash transfers are a popular tool in developing countries for fighting poverty, but they may increase violence in conflict areas, say researchers at @WorldBank and @heclausanne. #Chart https://t.co/oIGGKI3Txm
2/3 Les nouvelles sont bonnes car les jeunes bénéficiaires ont des revenus 15% supérieurs à un groupe de comparaison 5 ans après leur sortie du programme.

@Thomasdehoop1 @Ugentilini Thanks. Agree it would be nice to see. (External validity also cuts the other way though: a lot said on public works has been based on the influential programs you mention. Not taking anything away from this important work, but many/most public works have different features)
@Ugentilini @Thomasdehoop1 Thanks! The review focuses on experimental evidence. That includes some programs where participation is spread over time, but not "permanent programs" (as discussed). Most PWPs do not allow for repeated participation every year. But results from repeated WFP programs coming soon
Do workfare programs have sustained impacts? Our new review of 11 RCTs shows that short-term positive effects on employment and earnings tend to fade in the medium-term. https://t.co/U5RPA5G8Ps
