Conditional cash transfer programs have the potential to pull families and individuals out of extreme poverty, as well as providing incentives for accessing health care services for populations that are particularly at risk.

In the current study, we test the effectiveness of a range of quality improvement interventions at informal preschools in Malawi on early childhood development and primary school readiness, using a cluster-randomized controlled trial (cluster-RCT).

In this study, we used a randomized controlled trial to examine effects of book distribution and support for book sharing to provide support for parents, and cognitive stimulation for children in rural Kenya.

This study explores two approaches to scale-up: converting a home-visiting model to a group-based model; and integrating the ECD curriculum into an existing government program.

This study, funded by NICHD, assessed the most effective and cost-effective model of delivery for an integrated stimulation and nutrition intervention to improve parenting practices and child developmental outcomes among families with young children in rural Kenya.

This study is aimed at understanding the best ways to support children living in poverty and facing multiple risk factors.

The WASH Benefits Bangladesh and Kenya cluster-randomized trials represent a large-scale collaboration, with colleagues from UC Berkeley, UC Davis, Stanford, Emory, Johns Hopkins, and the ICDDR,B in Bangladesh.
