Sistema de indicadores sobre marginaciones sociales. Desarrollo y utilidades

Abstract

The System of Indicators on Social Marginalization (SIMASOC), developed within the framework of the PIUBAMAS Program of the UBA, is proposed as a mechanism for monitoring public policies and social, economic and cultural situations that affect the production and reproduction of social marginalization from the academia and from a human rights approach. SIMASOC is based on a set of indicators from international indicator systems, such as the Monitoring Mechanism of the San Salvador Protocol, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Montevideo Consensus and the Follow-up Mechanism of the Belém do Pará Convention (MESECVI).

The system, in this first phase, is made up of six thematic dimensions: poverty, violence, education, work, social security and health; which are crossed by transversal axes based on different disaggregations (gender, children and adolescents, older people, migrants and asylum seekers). For each reference indicator, several specific indicators and sources were defined, forming a network of information that, as a whole, is eloquent for monitoring social marginalization.
