dc.description.en-US.fl_txt_mv In Uruguay, Secondary or Middle School graduation rates are close to 40%, recording one of the lowest rates throughout Latin American countries. One of the most important strategies to fight against educational inequality was implemented in 2008, pursuing expansion and reinforcement, and focusing the Asignaciones Familiares (education allowance per child), one of the oldest and most extensive conditional cash transfer programs. The purpose of this subsidy is to support educational expenses to families through a monthly monetary allowance, so that individuals from lower income households can face the costs of schooling, investing in human capital so as to break the cycle of economic vulnerability. The objective of this work is to observe the effect of the subsidy program on private educational expenditure regarding attendance at Secondary School. For this propose, using a harmonized series of the Continuous Household Survey from 2001 to 2017, two quasi-experiments techniques are combined: Propensity Score Matching and Difference in Differences. In this way, the impact of expansion implemented through Asignaciones Familiares from 2008 is evaluated both for Lower and Upper Secondary School attendance. Among the main results, the allowance of Asignaciones Familiars evidenced a significant and positive effect in the attendance at Lower Secondary School, with great increase after the reform of 2008. However, in Upper Secondary Education, Asignaciones Familiares subsidy had no effect prior to 2008, and thereafter was negative.
dc.description.es-ES.fl_txt_mv En Uruguay las tasas de egreso de Educación Media son cercanas al 40%, de las más bajas de toda América Latina. Una de las estrategias de combate a la desigualdad educativa fue, en el año 2008, la ampliación, el refuerzo y la focalización de las Asignaciones Familiares, uno de los programas de transferencia monetaria condicionada más antiguos y de mayor alcance. De este modo, a través del incremento de una partida monetaria mensual se subsidia el gasto educativo privado, y los individuos provenientes de los hogares de menores ingresos pueden afrontar los costos de continuar escolarizados, invirtiendo en capital humano y rompiendo el ciclo de la vulnerabilidad económica. El objetivo de este trabajo es observar el efecto de un programa de subsidio al gasto educativo privado en la asistencia a la Educación Media. Para ello se utiliza una serie armonizada de la Encuesta Continua de Hogares desde el año 2001 al 2017 en la cual, a través de una combinación de cuasi experimentos tales como Propensity Score Matching y Difference in Differences se evalúa el impacto de las Asignaciones Familiares y de la ampliación de régimen desde el año 2008, en la asistencia a la Educación Media Básica y Educación Media Superior. Entre los principales resultados se destaca el efecto significativo y positivo de las Asignaciones Familiares en la asistencia a la Educación Media Básica, con un incremento de la magnitud luego de la reforma de 2008. En cambio, en Educación Media Superior las Asignaciones Familiares tuvieron un efecto nulo previo a 2008, y negativo posteriormente.

Uma das estratégias de combate à desigualdade educacional foi, no ano 2008, a amplificação, o reforço e a focalização das Asignaciones Familiares (auxílio às famílias), um dos programas de transferências monetárias condicionadas mais antigos e de maior abrangência. Assim, através de um aumento mensal da transferência monetária, as despesas educacionais particulares são subsidiadas, aos fins de que os indivíduos de famílias de baixa renda possam arcar com os custos de continuar a escola, investindo em capital humano e quebrando o ciclo da vulnerabilidade econômica. O objetivo desse trabalho é observar o efeito de um programa de subsídio de despesas educacionais particulares na assistência ao Ensino Médio. Para tanto, é utilizada uma série harmonizada de a Pesquisa Domiciliar Contínua de 2001 a 2017, na que, através de uma combinação de quase experimentos como Propensity Score Matching e Difference in Differences, o impacto das Asignaciones Familiares é avaliado, além da expansão do regime a partir de 2008, na assistência ao Ensino Médio Básico e ao Ensino Médio Superior. Dentre os principais resultados salienta o efeito significativo e positivo das Asignaciones Familiares na assistência ao Ensino Médio Básico, com um aumento importante após a reforma de 2008.
