Outline of Annual Research Achievements

This year was very difficult for research progress because of coronavirus. I wasn't able to visit my co-authors in Europe so our coding has been delayed. We did recently make some progress with estimating our model on technological change and wage inequiality. Hopefully we should have estimates soon and can make progress on coding. For the project on clinic choice and prenatal care in DRC, the experiment and data collection by the World Bank has also been delayed because of the coronavirus. The data collection should hopefully resume soon and my co-author has been working on training enumerators for the next data collection round.

Current Status of Research Progress
Current Status of Research Progress

3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.

Reason

Because of coronavirus it was impossible to visit co-authors this year.

Strategy for Future Research Activity

As of right now there is no fundamental change to the research plan and we still perceive that we can accomplish all of the research goals.

Causes of Carryover

It was difficult to use all of the kaken budget this year because of travel restrictions. Normally I would have attended conferences and visited my co-authors.
