Correlates of Help‐Seeking Behaviour in a Low‐Income Country: A Focus on Children's and Women's Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In developing countries, where access to markets and services is limited, poor households often rely on social networks for support. We examine the correlates and outcomes of help‐seeking behaviour among impoverished households in Uganda. We use micro‐household data from the Living Standard Measurement Study—Integrated Surveys on Agriculture ...
