+- may reinforce gender wage gap [@Wong2019]
+- may decrease gender wage gap [@Militaru2019]
+
+channels:
+
+- exit from urban manufacturing, reinforcing rural agricultural sectors [@Chao2022]
+- reaching many low-wage earners as secondary high-income household earners, but often low-wage households no wage earners at all -> bad targeting [@Alinaghi2020]

+- have negative effect on women's hours worked depending on household care/waged work division [@Wong2019]

+- higher job-provision outcomes may be achieved in contexts of lower prior material inequalities [@Li2022]
+
+channels:
+
+- job-deprived areas can experience further deprivations if not specifically targeted

+- healthcare subsidies impacts strongly dependent on correct targeting [@Carstens2018]
