Abstract:

Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) is a social assistance program which aims for investing in human capital by enabling families under risk of poverty to send their children to school and to benefit from health services regularly. CCT program in Turkey was spread among poor families, and demands for the program were increased. The need for examining these demands scientifically made this study necessary. In this study, the change of CCT applications over time was modeled by using multivariate time series modeling namely vector autoregressive models with exogenous variables (VARX) according to geographical regions.
