Resumo: Housing and health-related issues are typical concerns of developing countries since their consequences usually lead to deadly diseases. Hence, in order to improve the assertiveness of public policies, minimize the divergence between actions proposed by different studies and contribute to mitigate those issues, this paper seeks to understand the relative impacts of the proposed policies as well as their efficiency. Thus, this paper evaluates the Brazilian Rental Housing Program (RHP) using a regression discontinuity design (RDD) model, a strategy that is strengthened by the performance of robustness tests. As a result, we verified that RHP was able to reduce deaths from sanitation-related diseases by up to 11% and that this effect increases over time.

Assim, com o objetivo de melhorar a assertividade das políticas públicas, minimizar as divergências entre as ações propostas pelos diferentes estudos e contribuir para mitigar essas questões, este artigo busca compreender os impactos relativos das políticas propostas, bem como sua eficiência. Para isso, avaliamos o Programa de Arrendamento Residencial (PAR) por meio de um desenho de regressão descontínua (RDD), estratégia que é fortalecida pela realização de testes de robustez. Como resultado, verificamos que o PAR foi capaz de reduzir asmortes por doenças relacionadas ao saneamento em até 11% e que esse efeito aumenta com o tempo.Universidade de São Paulo, FEA-RP/USP2020-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/article/view/16475410.11606/1980-5330/ea164754Economia Aplicada; Vol. 24 No. 4 (2020); 487-508Economia Aplicada; Vol. 24 Núm. 4 (2020); 487-508Economia Aplicada; v. 24 n. 4 (2020); 487-5081980-53301413-8050reponame:Economia Aplicadainstname:Universidade de São Paulo (USP)instacron:USPenghttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/article/view/164754/169895Copyright (c) 2020 Economia Aplicadahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNishimura, Fabio Nobuo2021-03-16T06:40:00Zoai:revistas.usp.br:article/164754Revistahttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoaPUBhttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/oai||revecap@usp.br1980-53301413-8050opendoar:2023-09-13T12:17:14.443495Economia Aplicada - Universidade de São Paulo (USP)false
