Contraceptive use improves women's agency, education, and labor force participation; higher maternal age at first birth (reducing adolescent childbearing) increases the likelihood of school completion and participation in the formal labor market; and having fewer children increases labor market participation. Reproductive health is not just a benefit to a woman's individual rights, but her gateway for breaking free from her poverty trap and improving the welfare of herself, her children, and her household. Context Women's access to employment, business opportunities, and financial resources is critical to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals over the next 15 years. With increased attention to women's economic empowerment among donors and policymakers across the globe, this moment is a pivotal one in which to review the current state of the research on this topic. Methods We reviewed the Population and Poverty (PopPov) Research Initiative results from the past 10 years with attention to the causal link between reproductive health improvements and women's economic empowerment, in addition to seminal research that informed our understanding of the link. Findings Our review of PopPov findings revealed that improvements in reproductive health do lead to improvements in women's economic empowerment; expanding contraceptive use improves women's agency, education, and labor force participation; higher maternal age at first birth (reducing adolescent childbearing) increases the likelihood of school completion and participation in the formal labor market; and having fewer children increases labor force participation. Conclusions Gaps remain in measuring women's work and in the full exploration of women's economic empowerment. More research is needed regarding the long-term impact of reproductive health improvements on women's economic empowerment, as some studies have shown that at times unintended negative consequences occur after early positive improvements.}, langid = {english}, - keywords = {inequality::gender,inequality::health,sample::snowballing,TODO::full-text}, + keywords = {inequality::gender,inequality::health,sample::snowballing,TODO::review}, file = {/home/marty/Zotero/storage/6MWD6MCF/Finlay_Lee_2018_Identifying Causal Effects of Reproductive Health Improvements on Women's.pdf} } diff --git a/02-data/processed/relevant/Bartha2020.yml b/02-data/processed/relevant/Bartha2020.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..bf61d3a --- /dev/null +++ b/02-data/processed/relevant/Bartha2020.yml @@ -0,0 +1,50 @@ +author: Bartha, A., & Zentai, V. +year: 2020 +title: "Long-term care and gender equality: Fuzzy-set ideal types of care regimes in europe" +publisher: Social inclusion (vol. 8, issue 4, pp. 92–102) +uri: https://doi.org/10.17645/si.v8i4.2956 +pubtype: article +discipline: sociology + +country: global +period: 2016-2019 +maxlength: 1 +targeting: implicit +group: women +data: European Commission;

They find that providing relatively higher wages for teaching professions as compared to non-teaching professions significantly increases female labour force participation for teachers, though the strongest determinant for it is possessing a college major in education, with overall education level being another determinant. The study also looks at the effects of the presence of a new-born baby and finds that it significantly decreases female labour force participation and is almost twice as large for women in the teaching profession as compared to non-teaching jobs, though it does not have an effect on the choice of job between teaching or non-teaching.
