En el segundo semestre de 2022, la pobreza fue del 39,2% y afectó a más de 18 millones de argentinos

The article reveals that poverty in Argentina increased significantly in the second half of 2022, affecting a large portion of the population. Official data show a widespread increase across all regions, with the northeastern and northwestern areas experiencing the highest rates. This phenomenon reflects the growing difficulty in meeting basic needs due to structural economic factors. The INDEC methodology combines income data and costs of the basic food basket to calculate these indicators. The analysis highlights that indigence decreased slightly, although poverty grew in percentage terms. This distinction is crucial for understanding the complexity of the socioeconomic situation and how resources are distributed across different territories of the country. This report is relevant to open data because it demonstrates transparency in the publication of official statistics by INDEC. Access to these data allows citizens and experts to verify the information and compare it with private estimates. The periodic and detailed publication fosters accountability and independent analysis, which are fundamental pillars of the knowledge society.
