Summary

Background (brief):

1. Burden: There are around 250 millions children in low and middle income countries who do not reach their developmental potential. This developmental delay sustains to middle childhood on their IQ, educational learning and performance to adulthood on their income and quality of life.
2. Knowledge gap: There are little evidence on impact of early (at age 0-2 years) intervention on middle- childhood
3. Relevance: Parenting and unconditional cash was found to improve children's development and maternal well-being immediate after the intervention when children's age was 6-16 months at enrolment. Now the children's age are 6-9 years old. This follow-up study will evident the impact of early intervention on children's development at middle -childhood and their maternal well-being.

Hypothesis (if any): The hypothesize was that the intervention at early age will have an impact on -

* Children' IQ (primary outcomes) and
* Their learning achievement
* Middle childhood home environment
* Mothers' depressive symptoms and quality of life
* Mothers' exposure to domestic violence, and women's empowerment (e.g. participation in decision making on family affairs, freedom of movement) compared to only unconditional cash

Methods: It is a longitudinal study. We will follow all the mother and child dyads who participated at their early childhood.
