  • Dados Associados à: Programa de Integração e Convivência Urbana: Resultados da estratégia de pareamento
    Dataset

    By Housing and Urban Development Division (VPS/CSD/HUD)
    This dataset is associated with the publication "Urban Integration and Coexistence Program: Results of the Pairing Strategy" (Related publication only available in Spanish). The report presents the results of a pilot program for comprehensive neighborhood improvement, focusing on indicators such as crime and security, women’s empowerment, optimism, household activities, and access to basic services. The pilot program served as the foundation for the development of the Urban Integration and Coexistence Program (PICU) and was implemented in two neighborhoods of the Central District of Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The program did not achieve the expected outcomes regarding women’s empowerment. Treated women continue to request permission from their partners at a higher rate, and no significant impact was observed on decision-making. On a positive note, the program appears to have had a favorable effect on women’s decisions regarding the number of children to have. This suggests that women...

  • Check List para Avaliação do Risco de Transmissão
    Dataset

    By Agriculture and Rural Development Division (VPS/PTI/ARD)
    The series of documents includes general recommendations to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission in the tourism sector, as well as specific recommendations for different tourist subsectors and spaces (accommodations, restaurants, local transport, beaches, airports and ports). It also includes recommendations for managing prevention protocols and specific tools to minimize transmission. The series is derived from an evaluation-diagnosis exercise that determined the adequacy of the current biosafety protocols against COVID-19 in a set of tourism subsectors, identifying the main nodes of risk of contagion throughout the service provision process. The series is made up of 10 documents: Reading Guide, R01 General Recommendations, R02.1-R02.5 Specific Recommendations by Subsector (tourist accommodation, restaurants, local transport, beaches, ports and airports), R03 Recommendations for Managing Prevention Protocols, and E02.1-E02.2 Specific Tools to Minimize Transmission.

  • Pesquisa Longitudinal de Saúde e Desenvolvimento Infantil no Equador, Rodadas 1-5 (2003-2014)
    Dataset

    By Health, Nutrition and Population Division (VPS/SCL/HNP)
    Very few developing countries have long-term longitudinal surveys that have followed children from the early years throughout their adult life, with low attrition rates and large sample sizes. This type of survey is essential to understand what are critical times in the life cycle when gaps in different dimensions of human capital emerge and how they evolve over time and affect later outcomes. The Ecuador longitudinal survey started in 2003 and has had 5 subsequent follow-ups: 2005, 2008, 2011, 2014, and 2019. This data set contains the first five of them. A large number of papers has been written using this data (Paxson and Schady 2007; Paxson and Schady 2010 ; Schady 2006; Fernald and Hidrobo 2011 ; Schady 2011 ; Schady 2012; Schady, Behrman et al. 2015; Berlinsky and Schady, 2015; Araujo, Bosch, Maldonado and Schady 2017; Araujo, Bosch and Schady 2016, and others). All rounds of the survey administered tests to measure different areas of child development (cognition, language,...

  • Programa de Integração e Convivência Urbana: Relatório de Linha de Base (Conjunto de Dados) 2014
    Dataset

    By Housing and Urban Development Division (VPS/CSD/HUD)
    This report summarizes the housing and socioeconomic data collected through the Beneficiary Survey of the Neighborhood Improvement Programs conducted in 2014. The survey covered all households in the 11 neighborhoods of the Central District of Tegucigalpa, Honduras, where the first phase of the Urban Integration and Coexistence Program (PICU) - HO-L1088 is planned for implementation. The analysis of descriptive characteristics highlights the main public service needs of these communities, as well as the overall condition of the neighborhoods. Additionally, the socioeconomic characterization of the households provides insights into the health, education, sociability, and intra-family relationships of their members. This information helps design targeted social policies addressing these specific areas in the neighborhoods.

  • Ferramenta de Simulação de Custos para os Sistemas de Cuidados de Longo Prazo na América Latina e no Caribe
    Dataset

    By Health, Nutrition and Population Division (VPS/SCL/HNP)
    The cost simulation tool for long-term care systems provides a way to quickly estimate how much it would cost governments in Latin America and the Caribbean to implement this type of system. It can also be used to compare different service packages and make projections. The dataset contains data on population, levels of care dependence, and other macroeconomic variables that are processed by formulas to allow users to quickly estimate how much it would cost a government to implement a long-term care system in 2020. Users can estimate the cost of up to two long-term care service packages and project costs for 2025 and 2030.
