2019 Fiscal Year Research-status Report

Structural Estimation and Counterfactual Analysis in Models of Human Capital Formation

Research Project

Project/Area Number 19K13715
Research InstitutionThe University of Tokyo

Principal Investigator

グリフェン アンドリュウ  東京大学, 大学院経済学研究科(経済学部), 准教授 (10645055)

Project Period (FY) 2019-04-01 – 2023-03-31
KeywordsStructural estimation / Counterfactuals / Prenatal care / Technological change
Outline of Annual Research Achievements

The research is proceeding but it is too early for any research achievements. Dr. Shapira visited Tokyo in February for joint work but my visits to Europe to work with Dr. Choi and Dr. Llull has been delayed because of COVID-19. However, there are still many aspects of the work that can be done remotely. We are aiming to finish programming for the technological change and migration by the end of 2020. Hopefully we can submit the papers for conferences in 2021. However, publications will likely need to wait for 2022 at the earliest.

Current Status of Research Progress
Current Status of Research Progress

2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.

Reason

Progress seems normal. We are working on programming in FORTRAN for the project on technological change and migration and we are working on data analysis for the work on prenatal care demand estimation. Data collection in the Congo has been delayed because of COVID-19 but should resume in the Fall hopefully.

Strategy for Future Research Activity

Continue programming, visit Europe and World Bank after end of COVID-19 pandemic, and data collection should continue in the Fall in Congo.

Causes of Carryover

I am planning to use this money to visit Congo (DRC) for field research but this research was delayed because of coronavirus. Therefore I need to delay spending the dokuritsu grant. In the event that I cannot visit Congo due to coronavirus I will plan to use this grant for a different project in Asia (perhaps Vietnam or Philippines).
