Zusammenfassung:This study evaluates a program designed to stimulate girl's schooling through the creation of private girls' schools in poor urban neighborhoods of Quetta, Pakistan. Enrollment growth in these randomly selected neighborhoods is compared to enrollment growth in otherwise similar neighborhoods that were randomly assigned to a control group. The analysis suggests that programs targeted at girls can also induce parents to invest more in their boys. (DSE/DÜI)
