Replication Data for: Urban Integration and Coexistence Program: Results of the Pairing Strategy

By Housing and Urban Development Division (VPS/CSD/HUD)

This dataset contains the data behind the report "Urban Integration and Coexistence Program: Results of the Pairing Strategy" (related publication available only in Spanish). It documents a pilot program for comprehensive neighborhood improvement implemented in two neighborhoods of the Central District of Tegucigalpa, Honduras, and measured across indicators such as crime and security, women's empowerment, optimism, household activities, and access to basic services.

What the data covers

The pilot served as the foundation for the later Urban Integration and Coexistence Program (PICU). The dataset reports outcomes on the indicators evaluated, allowing researchers to examine how the pairing strategy affected participating households.

Key findings

The program did not achieve the expected outcomes on women's empowerment: treated women continued to request permission from their partners at a higher rate, and no significant impact was observed on decision-making. On a more positive note, the program appears to have had a favorable effect on women's decisions about the number of children to have, suggesting that women may have gained greater control and autonomy over their own bodies.

The dataset is distributed as an XLSX data file accompanied by a PDF, and is published as open data by the Inter-American Development Bank under a Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial–NoDerivs 3.0 IGO license.
