The effect of credit programme membership on food expenditure and child nutrition in rural Malawi : does female headship have a differential effect?
(2005) Mhango, Yvonne; Burns, Justine; Kesswell, Malcolm
Although several country-level studies have investigated the impact of access to credit on various outcome variables, few of these studies have looked at the full effect of membership in a credit programme. This study was conducted on a Malawian dataset that was collected through a household rural finance survey. The study differs from other studies in that the operative explanatory variable is not monetary credit but credit programme membership.
