	The study’s objective was to assess the effects of a women’s entrepreneurship training program on children’s participation in school and work.
	The study was a regression discontinuity design, using baseline and follow-up household surveys to measure program outcomes. Households were selected into the program if they had a wealth score below a cut-off point. The authors compared the outcomes of children in households above and below the cut-off score to understand the program’s effects.
	The study found that selection and participation in the program was significantly associated with a decrease in the percent of children working-only and not attending school, and the number of hours that children worked per week. Selection and participation in the program was also significantly related to an increase in school attendance.
	This study used a regression discontinuity design and therefore was reviewed using CLEAR’s descriptive study evidence review guidelines. As such, it does not receive a causal rating.","Eliminating Child Labour in El Salvador through Economic Empowerment and Social Inclusion","Child labor","Female, Parent, Low income",,International,2016,http://www.ucw-project.org/attachment/07032017224El_Salvador_IE_07042016_web.pdf,"Child Labor Review Protocol"

The study’s objective was to assess the impact of a program developed to prevent children under 18 years of age from working on the street.
The study was an interrupted time series design conducted in one neighborhood in the city of Izmit, Turkey. The authors compared the outcomes for mothers and their children before, immediately after, and three months after participating in The Streets are Not the Solution program.
The study found that participating in the program was associated with a 44 percentage point decrease from pretest to posttest in the percentage of children who worked on the streets. However, the study did not include tests of statistical significance.
The quality of causal evidence presented in this report is low because the authors did not account for trends in outcomes before the intervention. This means we are not confident that the effects are attributable to the Streets are Not the Solution program; other factors are likely to have contributed.","The Streets are Not the Solution","Child labor","Female, Other, Parent",,International,2016,,"Child Labor Review Protocol"
