摘要

日益频繁的负降雨冲击给家庭带来了一个具有挑战性的选择:是送孩子上学，还是让孩子退学，以便他们在家庭中提供支持。我们使用高分辨率空间降雨数据与地理参考乌干达国家小组调查数据相匹配，以估计负降雨冲击对儿童入学率的影响。我们发现，暴露在负降雨冲击下，儿童的入学率显著降低了近10%。这些结果对改善乌干达儿童的教育具有重要的政策意义，特别是在降雨量特别不稳定的地理区域。

Rainfall shocks and children’s school attendance: evidence from Uganda

ABSTRACT The increasing frequency of negative rainfall shocks presents households with the challenging choice of whether to send their children to school or to withdraw them in order for them to provide support in the household. We use high-resolution spatial rainfall data matched with the georeferenced Uganda National Panel Survey data to estimate the effect of negative rainfall shocks on children’s school attendance. We find that exposure to negative rainfall shocks significantly reduces children’s school attendance by almost 10%. These results have important policy implications for improving children’s schooling, particularly in geographical areas that receive particularly erratic rainfalls, in Uganda.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
