“…Amongst the few papers that can be found on BF's effects, many have focused on economic effects related to poverty, income inequality, and consumption (Soares et al, 2006;Osório et al, 2007;Resende and Oliveira, 2007;Tavares, 2008;Lignani et al, 2011), and more recently on adults' participation in the labour market (Tavares, 2008;Foguel and Barros, 2010). Studies of the impacts of BF on child development, health, and nutritional status of children can also be found in the literature (Morris et al, 2004;Castiñeira, Nunes and Rungo, 2009;Reis, 2010;Lima, Rabito and Dias, 2011;Paes-Sousa, Santos and Miazak, 2011;Piperata et al, 2011). As to effects on education and child labour, although there are very few studies to date, these were, in fact, the primarily areas of interest at the time of the first CCT experiences, when education was the heart of the programmes.…”
