We examine the impact of rainfall variability and cyclones on schooling and work among a cohort of teens and young adults by estimating a bivariate probit model, using a panel survey conducted in 2004 and 2011 in Madagascar − a poor island nation that is frequently affected by extreme weather...

Climate change is particularly important issue in Madagascar, a poor island nation that is frequently affected by droughts, floods and cyclones. We examine the impact of weather events on schooling and work among a cohort of teens and young adults by estimating a bivariate probit model using...
