Raising primary school enrolment in developing countries: The relative importance of supply and demand

In: Journal of development economics, Band 69, Heft 1, S. 103-128

Abstract

Few policies are as universally accepted as raising primary school enrolment in developing countries, but the policy levers for achieving this goal are not straightforward. This paper merges household survey data with detailed school supply characteristics from official sources, in order to estimate the relative impact of demand and supply side determinants of rural primary school enrolment in Mozambique.
