The paper measures the effect of child market work on the long-term growth of human capital, focusing on the output of the human capital production: mathematics skills, cognitive skills, pulmonary function, and educational attainment. Our full sample is drawn from a rich longitudinal dataset Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS).
This paper attempts to explore deprivations experienced by children. Utilizing national survey dataset collected by BPS and the MODA methodology developed by UNICEF, it shows that children may or may not suffer from deprivation in many dimensions and monetary poverty at the same time. One of the advantages of the MODA approach is the child-focused analysis.
