1 Fertility and women s labor force participation in a low-income rural economy Mattias Lundberg, Nistha Sinha, Joanne Yoong Pop/Pov Conference Capetown, January 2010
2 Outline Fertility, growth, and income The Matlab programme Childbearing and labor force participation 2
3 Aggregate links poverty Countries with higher fertility are poorer Total fertility rate per woman Source: World Bank data 3
4 Aggregate links growth Countries with lower fertility grow faster Total fertility rate per woman Source: World Bank data 4
5 Changes in fertility and income Clear link between lower fertility and income, other outcomes. But what are the links to women s labor force participation and earned income? And does it matter how fertility declines? Postpone first birth Increase the interval between births (Ghana, Philippines) Stop having children at an earlier age (India) 5
6 Changes in fertility and income Endogeneity of fertility and labor force participation decisions previous studies find causality running both ways Prior IV strategies Twins (Rosenzweig and Wolpin 1980, 2000) Sex composition (Angrist and Evans 1998; Chun and Oh 2002; Carrasco 2001) Miscarriage (Hotz et al. 2005) Matlab programme randomly, exogenously assigned 6
7 The Matlab programme Demographic surveillance of 149 villages in Matlab since 1966 (ICDDR,B) Contraceptive Distribution and Family Planning and Health Services introduced in 70 villages in 1977 Home visits by trained female outreach workers to all currently married women in treatment villages 7
8 The Matlab programme Remarkable gains in the province: Infant mortality: 110 per 1000 live births in 1983, 65 in Total fertility: more than 6 in 1976, just over 3 in Fertility fell 15 percent more in program villages than in control villages. Also improvements to women s health, incomes, and assets in program villages. 8
9 Data 6068 women interviewed during the 1996 Matlab Health and Socioeconomic Survey (MHSS), which surveyed 4,364 households in 141 villages Sample restricted to 1278 eligible women in program and non-program villages who were eligible to receive the program (married women aged 20-55, etc.). 9

20 Conclusions Fertility not robustly or consistently related to labor force participation. Control over childbearing may affect decisions concerning sector of participation. Women with more children, those with more young children, and those who bear children at shorter intervals, are more likely to find employment in the informal sector. 20
