The medium-term impact of entrepreneurship education on labor market outcomes: Experimental evidence from university graduates in Tunisia

The study was made possible by a joint effort between the World Bank and the government of Tunisia. We are grateful to a team of researchers at the National Observatory for Employment and Skills (Observatoire Nationale d'Emploi et des Qualifications, ONEQ) who worked on the follow-up survey phase and contributed to the impact evaluation policy report under the overall guidance of Fakher Zaibi. We also thank Marwen Hkiri and Zied Ouelhazi for efficient supervision during data collection. We are grateful to Kamel Braham, Lucia Hanmer, Murat Kirdar, David McKenzie, Alexandria Valerio, anonymous referees and the editor for helpful comments. We are indebted to Rita Almeida and Rebekka Grun, who initiated the study on which this medium-term follow-up is based, as well as Mahdi Barouni and Lucas Etter, who contributed to the short-term follow-up phase. We acknowledge financial support from the Spanish Impact Evaluation Trust Fund (TF096014) and the Gender Action Plan (TF092477) at the World Bank for the baseline and first follow-up survey, as well as from the Women Leadership in SME Trust Fund (TF013788) at the World Bank for the medium-term follow-up survey.
