Abstract

Before
Child Collegio Carlo Alberto in cooperation with Ufficio Pio will pilot a conditional cash transfer programme that will focus on providing information set of families with children. We will evaluate the effects of conditional cash transfer methods on the wellbeing of families and children aged 0-6 years.
We are using a different type of condition to those used in the international experiences: the transfer is not dependent on how it is used or its effects, but on exposure to information and guidance that could encourage productive choices for the wellbeing of their family and of children in particular
The design of the evaluation is such that there will be one control group not receiving any transfer, a first treatment group of families receiving an unconditional cash grant and a second tretment group receiving the conditional cash trasfer. The condition is based on attendance to a series of courses aimed at improving individual labour market opportunities, children human capital accumulation processes, health status etc.
The aim of the study is to measure and explain the effects of conditional cash transfers and participation in educational/training activities on education and health of children aged 0-6 years, job-seeking opportunities, and the efficient use of time and income
