        Household remittance inflows and child education in Ghana: Exploring the gender and locational dimensions

        Abdallah Abdul-Mumuni,Isaac Koomson 한양대학교 경제연구소 2019 JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC RESEARCH Vol.24 No.2

        This paper investigates the effect of household remittance inflows onchild education in Ghana using data from the Ghana LivingStandards Survey Six (GLSS 6). Employing an instrumental variableapproach and including children at the nursery and kindergartenlevels in our study, the following findings are established. First,remittance inflows generally reduce household liquidity constraints,translating into increased number of school hours for their children. Second, while remittance inflow improves child education in the urbanareas, it reduces school hours for their counterparts in ruralcommunities. Third, gains in school hours from remittance inflows aremuch greater for boys but do not make any or much of a difference inimproving that of the girl-child. We call for financial systemregulations that help to substantially reduce transaction costs on (orrigidities in) remittance inflows so that its influence on child educationoutcomes will be improved.
