In a series of videos, AS/COA's Christopher Sabatini explains details about the index, to be published on July 31 in the summer issue of Americas Quarterly.
What is social inclusion and what does it mean for people living in the Americas? How can governments not only decrease poverty rates, but also improve civil society participation, women's rights, and education? Americas Quarterly's second Social Inclusion Index evaluates 16 countries on access to public and private goods by race, ethnicity, and gender, attitudes toward empowerment and government responsiveness, and the protection of basic civil, political, and human rights. The 2013 Index adds three new variables and four additional countries, as well as new data on race and gender pertaining to women’s rights, LGBT rights, and financial inclusion. The Index will be published on July 31 in the forthcoming summer issue of Americas Quarterly.
The Social Inclusion Index will be available on July 31.
