AB  - This paper examines the long-term effects of early childhood health interventions, such as vaccination, and family planning, on adult labor market and migration outcomes in Bangladesh. ITT effects demonstrate men born when both intensive child health services and family planning were available were more educated and had better quality and more entrepreneurial occupations that required academic skills, but migrated less domestically leaving average annual income unaffected. Similarly aged women also engaged more in entrepreneurial paid work. An older cohort of men born prior to the introduction of intensive child health interventions migrated less internationally leading to lower annual earning.
