En 2 años 8.3 millones salieron de pobreza

Between 2022 and 2024, Mexico experienced a significant decline in multidimensional poverty, with millions of people escaping this condition. This shift indicates that a substantial portion of the population no longer suffers from simultaneous deprivations in social rights and insufficient income to afford essential goods. The reduction is evident in both overall multidimensional poverty and extreme poverty rates, reflecting tangible improvements in living standards and access to basic necessities for a large segment of society. Despite these gains, significant social gaps remain. Access to social security remains the most widespread deficiency, followed by limited access to health services and nutritious food. These statistics highlight that, although progress has been made, structural barriers continue to hinder the full exercise of social rights for many citizens, underscoring the need for targeted policies to address these specific areas of exclusion and vulnerability within the framework of social equity. This data is highly relevant to open data initiatives because it demonstrates how transparent, accessible statistical information can drive public awareness and policy formulation. By making detailed metrics on poverty and social deprivation publicly available, institutions such as INEGI empower researchers, journalists, and civil society to monitor progress, hold authorities accountable, and advocate for evidence-based solutions. Open data thus serves as a critical tool for fostering informed dialogue and ensuring that governmental actions are aligned with the actual needs of the population.
