研究開始時の研究の概要 |
By applying primary and secondary data, the study analyzes the impact of parental expectations on the likelihood of finishing primary education in sustenance agriculture-dependent households in Mozambique. Additionally, it examines how gender and household location influence schooling.

研究実績の概要 |
We used a unique dataset of Mozambique smallholder farm households to estimate children’s school attendance and educational attainment in primary education. The results indicate that schooling is age-dependent, with increased dropouts from age 12. In male-headed families and rural areas, girls attend less and have lower odds of finishing primary education while among female-headed households, boys and girls attend school equally. Generally, female heads increase children’s odds of attaining primary. Moreover, since rural youth rank first among people migrating to suburban/urban areas for work, remittances influence schooling negatively. These findings suggest that gender, household headship, and migration all play a role in determining children’s schooling in Mozambique.

理由
The research has progressed beyond expectations. Based on the research, I published a paper with Professor Keiichi Ogawa, entitled "Smallholder households and children’s schooling in primary education in Mozambique" in March, 2024 in the International Journal of Educational Development. The paper can be accessed through the DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijedudev.2024.102980

今後の研究の推進方策 |
Next, I will expand the research to understand the expectations and differences in Mozambican society between households dependent on agriculture, i.e., smallholders, and the rest of the households employed in other sectors. This will give a more comprehensive view of what goes on within society regarding human capital investment.
