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”.

The study further explores the psychosocial mechanisms that made a multi-faceted economic inclusion intervention highly effective, expanding our earlier work go.nature.com/37DSlEB. Kuddos to @catcthomas for driving the mechanism experiment at the core of this new piece!

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 aeaweb.org/research/charts/c…

Cash transfers to poor households do a lot of good. Do they also reduce conflict? With @dominic_rohner, we leverage a large-scale experiment and find that cash transfers induce a temporary increase in conflict events, driven by external rebel groups.

To be clear, we do not think this is a reason to stop investing in cash transfer programs. They have achieved solid results (blogs.worldbank.org/impactev… ). Rather, it calls for complementary policy actions. (Also note: similar mechanisms may apply to other types of interventions.)
