Health and Civil War in Rural Burundi
结合家庭调查和冲突事件数据，发现布隆迪内战使暴露于战火的儿童身高别年龄Z评分平均降低0.515个标准差，对关注冲突健康影响的研究者有用。
We combine household survey data with event data on the timing and location of armed conflicts to examine the impact of Burundi's civil war on children's health status. The identification strategy exploits exogenous variation in the war's timing across provinces and the exposure of children's birth cohorts to the fighting. After controlling for province of residence, birth cohort, individual and household characteristics, and province-specific time trends, we find that children exposed to the war have on average 0.515 standard deviations lower height-for-age z-scores than non-exposed children. This negative effect is robust to specifications exploiting alternative sources of exogenous variation.
