Latin American Report 2011

The Report highlights the existence of significant territorial gaps and their impact on the unequal development possibilities of the territories. It is structured in two main sections.

Thus, some social indicators in a given country may make it appear that there are no problems in the area they measure, given their average value, but hide the fact that this average is made up of results from territories in which the indicator is indeed satisfactory and results from other territories where it is clearly unsatisfactory.
