Abstract

This case study summarizes the impact from a conditional cash transfer program targeted to girls of secondary school age in South Africa. The program led to a 34 percent reduction in intimate partner physical violence by allowing girls to avoid potential violent partnerships, as transfers delayed sexual debut and lowered their number of sexual partners.
