We are pleased to share news of a forthcoming journal publication that examines how family size influences parental participation in education campaigns in Nepal.

Building on evidence from an education intervention, this study investigates whether the number of children in a household affects parents’ engagement with educational programs. The analysis provides new insights into parental decision-making and participation behavior, offering important implications for the design of family- and child-focused interventions in developing country contexts.

The paper is scheduled to be published in Revue d’Economie du Développement.
