Is Michael Kremer's focus on deworming criticized?
Some critique the focus on specific, seemingly small interventions like deworming, suggesting it might distract from larger, systemic issues. However, my aim is not to suggest deworming is a panacea, but to demonstrate that even low-cost, targeted programs can have significant, measurable impacts on outcomes like school attendance and learning. This is about identifying high-return opportunities within broader development challenges, not replacing them.
