Conditional cash transfers in African countries
Following this practice, we assume that the transfers given to children are pooled within families and distributed to each member so that every member enjoys the same level of welfare. This assumption allows us to calculate the impact of transfers on aggregate national poverty among in...

Following this practice, we assume that the transfers given to children are pooled within families and distributed to each member so that every member enjoys the same level of welfare. This assumption allows us to calculate the impact of transfers on aggregate national poverty among individuals, subject to the limitations implied by the assumption. Second, this study develops a probit model to explore the determinants of school attendance in Africa. Using this model, we simulate the impact of cash
