Education Policy Impact on Vietnam's Economic Restructuring

A study investigating the causal impact of education on economic restructuring in Vietnam. The analysis exploits the Universal Primary Education policy within a fuzzy regression discontinuity framework. The dataset was authored by Nguyen, Khoa and last updated on the Harvard Dataverse platform in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Estimate the causal effect of education policy on economic restructuring indicators using a fuzzy regression discontinuity design.
• Analyze the relationship between Universal Primary Education policy exposure and subsequent economic outcomes.
• Replicate the causal inference methodology for similar policy evaluations in other regions.

Strengths

• Dataset is associated with a study employing a formal causal inference framework (fuzzy regression discontinuity).
• Focuses on a specific, well-defined national policy (Vietnam's Universal Primary Education).

Limitations

• Specific data volume (rows, columns) and granularity are unknown.
• The dataset's temporal coverage and geographic scope within Vietnam are unspecified.
