Macroeconomics and Data on Children

Submitted by crinadmin on

INNOCENTI WORKING PAPER 73

Putting data on children into the macroeconomic debate can be
achieved in a variety of ways that this paper briefly outlines.
Economic policy is about improving the lives of people and the
most basic data of all concerning children - demographic data -
can be used to underline this fact. The paper then argues that
the key economic variables on which economic policy operates
can all be given a child dimension. And it describes how direct
measures of various dimensions of child well-being, such as
nutrition and mortality, must be brought into the picture.
