Nobel bidang ekonomi tahun 2019 diberikan kepada tiga ilmuwan Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo and Michael Kremer atas pendekatan eksperimental (Randomized Control Trial/ RCT) mereka untuk mengatasi kemiskinan dalam skala global.

Metode RCT dipelopori oleh Michael Kremer di tahun 1990-an pada penelitiannya tentang pendidikan di Kenya.

Esther Duflo dalam salah satu penelitiannya melihat melihat pengaruh kebijakan pembangunan SD Inpres dalam perbaikan kualitas pendidikan di Indonesia.

Duflo, Esther. 2001. "Schooling and Labor Market Consequences of School Construction in Indonesia: Evidence from an Unusual Policy Experiment." American Economic Review, 91 (4): 795-813. DOI: 10.1257/aer.91.4.795. Link

Abstract
Between 1973 and 1978, the Indonesian government engaged in one of the largest school construction programs on record. Combining differences across regions in the number of schools constructed with differences across cohorts induced by the timing of the program suggests that each primary school constructed per 1,000 children led to an average increase of 0.12 to 0.19 years of education, as well as a 1.5 to 2.7 percent increase in wages. This implies estimates of economic returns to education ranging from 6.8 to 10.6 percent.
