- •
We estimate the effect of conditional cash transfers on conflict in the Philippines.

We exploit an experiment that randomly assigned a CCT program at the village level.

The program decreased conflict and insurgent influence at the village level.
- •
The effect may have been due to displacement of conflict to untreated villages.
