G²LM|LIC – Peripartum Timing, Agricultural Productivity, Food Security, and Child Health in Africa

As shown in the project’s policy brief , births during peak growing seasons are associated with reduced labor supply, lower yields, increased food insecurity, and worse child health outcomes (e.g. lower anthropometric z-scores and higher stunting risk). Important Note on Data Availability The datasets used in this project are secondary data derived from publicly available sources (e.g. LSMS-ISA). The original data are subject to third-party licensing and access conditions.
