Fewer people is a good thing

🚨 Migration as escape valve from Malthus 🚨

1) high fertility or late fertility transition -> spread of diasporas
2) Age of Mass Migration -> transition to modern growth

Subsidising secondary school had transformative impacts.

Female recipients had ~15% fewer unplanned pregnancies, 15% fewer children + significantly delayed age at first childbirth & marriage.

Over time, their offspring’s outcomes improved dramatically ⤵️
