The Estimation of Causal Effects by Difference-in-Difference Methods (2011, background): “4 DiD estimates may also be the starting point (first stage) of instrumental variable estimation strategies, like in the analysis of an Indonesian school construction programme by Duflo (2001).”
Green Returns to Education: Does Schooling Contribute to Pro-Environmental Behaviours? Evidence from Thailand (2017, background): “This is because, similar to the INPRES programme (a major school construction programme launched in 1973) in Indonesia (Duflo, 2001), the Ministry of Education of Thailand had a formula for calculating the number of teachers for a given size of schools and classrooms.”
Fuzzy Differences-in-Differences (2015, methodology): “In many applications of the di erences-in-di erences (DID) method, the treatment increases more in the treatment group, but some units are also treated in the control group. In such fuzzy designs, a popular estimator of treatment e ects is the DID of the outcome divided by the DID of the treatment, ”

The effect of pre-primary education on primary school performance (2006, methodology): “Using an identification strategy similar to Rosenzweig and Wolpin (1988), Card and Krueger (1992), and Duflo (2001), among others, we exploit the variation in treatment intensity across regions and cohorts to estimate the effect of expanding pre-primary school facilities on subsequent achievement…”
