Female labor force participation in five selected MENA countries : an age-period-cohort analysis (Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Palestine and Tunisia)
Lassassi, Moundir; Tansel, Aysıt - 2020
This paper considers the female labor force participation (FLFP) behavior over the past decade in five MENA countries namely, Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Palestine and Tunisia. Low FLFP rates in these countries, as it is in other MENA countries, are well documented. We conduct synthetic panel...
