About YOP Program:
YOP
-YOP (Youth Opportunities Program) is an 8-year follow-up on an employment
program in northern Uganda, which was evaluated using a randomized controlled
trial led by Chris Blattman (Columbia University) and Nathan Fiala (University
of Connecticut) in partnership with the World Bank and Government of Uganda.
This highly influential study was one of the first randomized trials of a
cash-based employment program in the world. YOP invited roughly 20
underemployed young men and women to submit proposals for grants of roughly
$8,000. This program turned out to be one of the most effective employment
programs on record.
