Project A06 (2026-29)
Work-family Policies: Socioeconomic Outcomes and Policy Learning
Increasingly, work-family policies are recognized as key to mitigating socioeconomic conflicts, yet their effectiveness has only recently been explored in a broader comparative perspective. The A06 project investigates: (1) How do family policies impact women’s and children’s socioeconomic outcomes? (2) When and how do policy actors adopt information on these socioeconomic outcomes, leading to policy learning? Using a mixed-methods approach, the project combines impact evaluation across world regions with comparative case studies on family-policy learning in Global North and South contexts.
