  • Metodologia e Resultados da Avaliação do Programa de Erradicação do Trabalho Infantil Sergei Suarez Dillon Soares Donald M. Pianto The structure of some household surveys allows the evaluation of social programs which are implemented gradually by municipality and whose objectives are measurable by survey variables. We use the PNAD survey to evaluate the impact of the Program for the <br>Eradication of Child Labor (Peti) on child labor, schooling, and income for municipalities which entered the program from 1997-1999. <br>We present bare results and results obtained from “matching” municipalities to form a control group (differences in differences). Only the child labor impact is robust to the differences in differences analysis, which is the primary objective of the program.The structure of some household surveys allows the evaluation of social programs which are implemented gradually by municipality and whose objectives are measurable by survey variables.
