Description

The World Bank's LAC Poverty DataFinder givesyou access to the latest indicators and reports about poverty,shared prosperity and equity in Latin America and the Caribbean. Itis a companion app to the LAC Equity Lab, a knowledge sharingplatform created by the LAC Team for Statistical Development(LACTSD) of the Poverty Global Practice. The indicators used inthis app are largely sourced from the SEDLAC database, a regionalhousehold survey harmonization effort led by the LACTSD and CEDLASat the National University of La Plata in Argentina. This databaseis used to create indicators comparable over time and acrosscountries in the region. As a result of the harmonization process,the indicators are not comparable to official statistics.
