摘要

住房和健康问题是发展中国家的典型关切，因为其后果通常会导致致命疾病。因此，为了提高公共政策的自信，最大限度地减少不同研究提出的行动之间的差异，并有助于缓解这些问题，本文试图了解拟议政策的相对影响及其效率。因此，本文使用回归不连续性设计（RDD）模型评估了巴西租赁住房计划（RHP），该策略通过稳健性测试的性能得到了加强。因此，我们验证了RHP能够将卫生相关疾病的死亡人数减少11%，而且这种影响会随着时间的推移而增加。

Housing and sanitation-related diseases

Housing and health-related issues are typical concerns of developing countries since their consequences usually lead to deadly diseases. Hence, in order to improve the assertiveness of public policies, minimize the divergence between actions proposed by different studies and contribute to mitigate those issues, this paper seeks to understand the relative impacts of the proposed policies as well as their efficiency. Thus, this paper evaluates the Brazilian Rental Housing Program (RHP) using a regression discontinuity design (RDD) model, a strategy that is strengthened by the performance of robustness tests. As a result, we verified that RHP was able to reduce deaths from sanitation-related diseases by up to 11% and that this effect increases over time.

期刊介绍： The journal Economia Aplicada (Brazilian Journal of Applied Economics) is a quarterly publication of the Dept. of Economics of the Faculty of Economics, Business and Accounting of the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto (FEA-RP/USP). It was first published in 1997 by the Dept. of Economics of FEA-USP and by FIPE, with the primary concern of filling an editorial gap in Brazil. The Journal"s interest is to publish solely scientific papers on applied economics. Nowadays it has the same goal. Its focus is to publish papers with economic analysis applied to specific problems of interest either to public or private sector, especially with quantitative results bringing theory and reality closer.
