DESCRIPTION:*What explains the gender gap in academic careers? This paper s
 tudies the role of geographic mobility in shaping gender disparities. I use
  new administrative data from France linking the universe of PhD graduates 
 to application and hiring outcomes in public universities. First\, I show t
 hat women submit fewer applications\, over shorter distances\, and are more
  locally concentrated than men. Second\, I exploit exogenous variation in t
 he spatial distribution of job openings across disciplines to estimate t
 he causal effect of mobility on hiring. I find that reduced mobility lowers
  both the number of applications and the probability of securing a position
 . Overall\, these results suggest that geographic mobility constraints are 
 a key mechanism behind persistent gender inequality in academia.**Parental 
 beliefs\, especially expectations about the returns to early childhood inve
 stments\, are a key determinant of how families allocate time and resources
  to their children. This paper investigates how those beliefs update over t
 ime in response to (i) a parenting information intervention\, (ii) a labele
 d\, unconditional cash transfer (UCT)\, or (iii) their combination. We expl
 oit the Kizazi Kijacho RCT’s unique gender-targeting to study how both mo
 thers’ and fathers’ beliefs change depending on who receives the labele
 d transfer\, leveraging randomized assignment and repeated belief elicitati
 ons at the child’s age-1 and age-2 follow-ups to capture short- and mediu
 m-run dynamics. We also examine heterogeneity by baseline parental characte
 ristics (e.g.\, education\, resources\, prior beliefs) and explore belief-t
 o-behavior links by relating belief updates to measured parenting investmen
 ts and early child outcomes.\\n\\nContact: Alexandre Arnout : alexandre.arn
