我们估计了一个公私伙伴关系（PPP）项目对乌干达低成本私立中学的短期部分均衡影响。PPP项目是一项更广泛战略的一部分，旨在吸收普及中等教育后大量增加的入学人数。参与PPP项目的私立学校从政府那里获得了每个学生的代金券。实施允许随机分阶段研究设计，以估计该计划对私立学校的因果影响。公私伙伴关系项目使得入学人数大幅增加，学生成绩显著提高。绩效的改善可能与投入的增加和积极的家庭主导的代金券接受者选择有关。
We estimate short-term, partial equilibrium impacts of a public-private partnership (PPP) program on low-cost private secondary schools in Uganda. The PPP program is part of a broader strategy to absorb large increases in enrollment following the introduction of universal secondary education. Private schools participating in the PPP program receive a per-student voucher from the government. Implementation allowed for a randomized phase-in study design to estimate causal impacts of the program on private schools. The PPP program led to both large enrollment increases and significantly higher student performance. Improved performance is potentially linked to increased input availability and positive household-driven selection of voucher recipients.
