Document details
The link between remittances and and education in Cape Verde
Description
A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Economics from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics In this study I examine the impact of remittances in school attendance in Cape Verde. Using the data from a household survey carried out in Cape Verde, I found that there is a positive and statistically significant relationship between remittances and education and that this relation gets stronger as the level of education increases. Poor institutions appear to be a constraint for families to fully benefit from the high potential of remittances.
