In this paper I develop a model to reproduce the phenomenon of high intergenerational correlations in education observed in Latin American Countries. The model is based on empirical evidence and implemented through agent based modeling techniques. The effect of conditional cash transfer programs on educational mobility is then analyzed. The results suggest that conditional cash transfer program can substantially increase intergenerational mobility in education. I find that using parental education as eligibility criterion and adapting the subsidies to the income level can improve the efficiency of a program in increasing educational mobility as compared to a purely income based program.
在本文中，我构建了一个模型来再现拉丁美洲国家中观察到的教育代际高度相关性现象。该模型基于经验证据，并通过基于主体的建模技术来实现。然后分析了有条件现金转移计划对教育流动性的影响。结果表明，有条件现金转移计划可以大大提高教育代际流动性。我发现，与纯粹基于收入的计划相比，将父母教育作为资格标准并根据收入水平调整补贴，可以提高计划提高教育流动性的效率。
