    This is an update of Donath et al. (CRP 21/04) which assessed the effect of the 2001 Universal Primary Education (UPE) in Tanzania on the welfare difference between youth (aged 15-35 according to the official definition) and adult (aged over 35) headed households in 2018. As anybody aged over 25 in 2018 would not have derived full benefit of UPE from 2001, this paper examines whether the welfare difference comparing 2001 and 2018 between households headed by youth aged 15-25 and adults (aged over 35) is attributable to differences in educational attainment following the nationwide 2001 UPE. Household budget survey data for 2001 and 2018 are used to estimate the effect of education on household welfare (measured as consumption relative to the poverty line), availing of the fact that youth in 2018 (aged 15-25) will have benefitted from the UPE. Decomposition analysis reveals that the increase in youth educational attainment by 2018 is a significant factor explaining the increase in welfare of youth headed households between 2001 and 2018. If the youth in 2001 had the same education endowment as their 2018 counterparts, their relative welfare would have been about a quarter higher. The findings also show that differences in educational attainment are significant factors explaining differences in welfare between youth and adults in each year. If adults had the same level of educational attainment as the youth, their welfare would have been about a third higher in 2001 and 2018. Expanding access to education had a positive effect on welfare.

    This paper examines whether the welfare difference between youth (aged 15-35) and adult (aged over 35) headed households between 2001 and 2018 is attributable to differences in educational attainment following Universal Primary Education (UPE) in Tanzania. The recentered influence function (RIF) decomposition method applied to household budget survey (HBS) data for 2001 and 2018 reveals that the increase in youth educational attainment between 2001 and 2018 is significant in explaining the difference in welfare (measured as per adult equivalent household consumption relative to the national poverty line) between the 2001 and 2018 youth cohorts. The findings suggest that if the youth in 2001 had the same education endowment as their 2018 counterparts, their welfare would have been about 20% higher. The findings also show that differences in educational attainment are significant factors explaining differences in welfare between youth and adult headed households in each year. If adults had the same level of educational attainment as the youth, their welfare would have been about 40% and 32% higher in 2001 and 2018 respectively. Although there is evidence that returns to education declined for the youth (consistent with more educated youth entering the labour market), this does not appear to have had a significant effect on household welfare.
