DESCRIPTION:*In traditional societies like those of rural India\, women con
 tinue to have limited agency over their health and decision-making\, which 
 makes information targeting difficult. In order to understand the importanc
 e of targeting crucial health information to different household members an
 d to explore how social norms can affect simple health-seeking behaviors of
  young married women in rural India.\, we conduct a randomized controlled t
 rial in 254 villages in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. To elic
 it the mother-in-law's central role in decision making for the pregnant wom
 en\, we consider two treatments randomized at the individual level: 1) wher
 e the maternal health information is given to only the pregnant woman\, and
  2) where the information is given to both the pregnant woman and the mothe
 r-in-law. At the village level\, we then experimentally vary whether this i
 nformation is provided individually at the household or whether it is provi
 ded in groups. We find that our intervention improves knowledge as well as 
 increases the number of antenatal care visits in the treatment groups versu
 s the control group. We also find that training women in a group leads to a
  higher number of visits than training women individually at home. Further\
 , while there is no significant difference in health seeking behavior based
  on the recipient of the information in the individual setting\, also train
 ing the mother-in-law in a group setting leads to more antenatal visits. Ou
 r preliminary results show that women who received our health intervention 
 are less likely to report post-delivery complications following similar pat
 terns as the impact on the number of antenatal visits. The study thus provi
 des a first causal evidence that there is indeed a positive relationship be
 tween preventative health measures and postpartum health of both the mother
  and the baby.**Do banks price in environmental risks ? Using loan-level da
 ta from the credit registry of the Central Bank of Colombia matched with fi
 rm’s characteristics\, we examine how the sudden drop in the valuation of
  fossil-fuel assets implied by the (exogenous) collapse of world oil prices
  in the second quarter of 2014 affected banks’ lending terms to the Colom
 bian fossil fuel industry. In this work in progress\, we differentiate firm
 s in the fossil fuel industry from other firms and tentatively find that th
 e collapse of oil prices led to a disproportionate increase in the probabil
 ity of default of firms in the fossil fuel industry\, particularly exposed 
 to the shock.\\n\\nContact: Camille Hainnaux: camille.hainnaux[at]univ-amu.
