| contents | Active Labour Market Programmes in Latin America and the Caribbean: Evidence from a Meta-Analysis Verónica Escudero Jochen Kluve Elva López Mourelo Clemente Pignatti We present a systematic review and meta-analysis of impact evaluations of active labour market programmes (ALMPs) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). We extract 296 impact estimates from 51 programme evaluations to analyse the effects of participation on employment, earnings, hours worked, and formality. Our analysis finds that the probabilities of being employed and in formal employment are the labour market indicators most likely to be positively affected by ALMPs in LAC. Moreover, ALMPs are more successful among women and youth and when they are implemented during periods of economic expansion. Training programmes increase both formal employment and earnings; training is particularly effective when it is more intensive and when explicitly targeting poor individuals. 10.1080/00220388.2018.1546843 DOI https://doi.org/10.1080/00220388.2018.1546843 publication.journalArticle |
