Connecting the archipelago with data to drive effective solutions
It's a tool to understand the challenges that families and youth face on their path towards upward economic mobility. Transparency and access to reliable data allow civil society, government, non-governmental organizations, and other interested stakeholders to participate in discussions and the design of solutions in a more informed manner. Additionally, it encourages collaboration and community empowerment, fostering a sense of shared responsibility in the pursuit of better conditions for everyone with a focus on an inclusive economy.
Families in Puerto Rico deserve an environment that allows them to thrive, with access to housing, quality education, healthy food, quality healthcare services, good jobs, and recreational spaces. As well, Puerto Rico's youth deserve an environment that allows them to grow. At the Instituto del Desarrollo de la Juventud (Youth Development Institute), we believe in a Puerto Rico where all families, regardless of their origin or economic situation, have the opportunity to advance and thrive. To provoke sustainable changes, it is necessary to impact and reduce poverty.
From the Instituto del Desarrollo de la Juventud (Youth Development Institute), we promote this strategic guide to boost economic mobility of families with children and youth in Puerto Rico. Explore the recommendations focused on reducing child poverty and transforming social and economic realities to create an environment that allows all families to prosper.
