| description |
The report is organized around the main
achievements and challenges Uruguay faces from the
perspective of expanding opportunities for children in the
XXI century, a perspective that is consistent with the
country's stated social welfare goals and upper
middle-income status. Chapter two presents the main
achievements and challenges faced at the national level in
access to opportunities for key goods and services:
education, health, housing and infrastructure, and
information and communications technology. It also presents
results over time using limited comparable data. Chapter
three explores the geographic distribution of the Human
Opportunity Index (HOI) in depth as well as the distribution
of gains and losses over time. Both chapters measure
opportunities to access a basic set of goods and services
and an expanded set more consistent with Uruguay's
relative development, whenever data allows. This report also
offers some policy applications of the equality of
opportunity framework as well as policy considerations to
support an opportunity-enhancing environment. Chapter four
provides an assessment of how recent education, social, and
technological programs may fare from the perspective of
expanding opportunities to children. Chapter five concludes. |
