Child Health and Conflict in Côte d'Ivoire
利用战前和战后调查数据，结合暴力事件地点信息，研究了2002-2007年科特迪瓦内战对1997-2007年出生儿童身高别年龄指标的影响，发现冲突严重地区的儿童健康显著受损，家庭层面的战争相关经济压力、健康压力和流离失所是重要原因。
We examine the impact of the 2002-07 civil conflict in Cote d'Ivoire on children's health status measured by height-for-age. We use pre- and post-war survey data coupled with information on the location of violent incidents to capture exposure to the conflict of children born during 1997-2007. Our results indicate that children from regions more affected by the conflict suffered significant health setbacks compared with children from less affected regions. Further, household-level victimization -- such as war-related economic stress, health stress, and displacement -- has a large and negative effect on child health in conflict-affected regions.
