Mother's education DHS surveys

[Daniel Perez Parra]

Hi! I'm currently working on the impact of a new law on female schooling as my master thesis. My target population is girls between 14 and 17 years and I'm using DHS data, specifically the Household Member Recode (PR). Sadly, data on mother's education is not available in the same module and I don't have any idea about how can I get mother's education data, which is a key factor for determining female schooling. I want to include it as a control. Any idea on how can I do it?

Thanks in advance,

Daniel.

Here is a report on mother-daughter analysis using DHS data. Perhaps the data and methodology discussion will start you on your way.
