Childhood and adolescence

Children and adolescents in Colombia are classified as those individuals between conception and 17 years of age. In accordance with Colombian legislation, they are recognized as having rights which are legally guaranteed under nine principles: best interests, the right to be prioritized, co-responsibility, enforceability, equity, social inclusion, solidarity, complementarity and subsidiarity.

Our contribution

Econometría has contributed to the development of understanding around the situation of children, at the different stages of their lives, through analysis, studies and evaluations of policy, programmes and public interventions aimed at boys and girls. It has likewise participated in raising awareness of the role of this age group in sectoral policies. Furthermore, we have worked with NGOs and Multilateral Organisms, such as Unicef and Save the Children, to analyze steps taken to protect the child population and to assess the level of its inclusion in public actions in relation to local development, participation and protection.

Evaluations for the United Nations

At Econometría we have conducted multiple evaluations of Country Programmes, focused programmes and operations of United Nations organizations in Latin America, Asia and Africa, such as UNICEF, the World Food Programme (WFP), UNHCR, UN Women, FAO, Unesco, IOM, and ILO, among others. A long-term contract with Unicef was established to carry out evaluations of impact, examples of which include: an evaluation of the nutritional improvement programme for children in Nepal, the creation of a baseline for the programme against child marriage in Afganistan, the evaluation of the ‘Bringing Up with Love’ (Criando con Amor) programme in Honduras, the evaluation of the Country Programme in Ethiopia, and work to improve the efficiency of the organization in Africa. We have worked on an ongoing, long-term basis with the WFP since 2012 to provide services to evaluate centralized and decentralized outlines, carrying out multiple evaluations of Country Programmes, operations and strategies in Cuba, Nicaragua, Colombia, Bolivia, Haiti, Central America, the Caribbean, Guinea Bissau and Gambia, among others.

Our contribution

Econometría is the only Latin-American company to be granted a long-term contract with the WFP. We have contributed, for both the WFP and other organizations, to the search for evidence for successes and challenges in decision-making processes, with the objective of creating and implementing more relevant, effective, efficient and sustainable interventions, in areas such as food and nutrition, reduction of poverty, comprehensive development of boys and girls, gender equality, protection for refugees, and human rights.

Education

Education

Education is a fundamental human right and corresponds with Sustainable Development Objective 4 (ODS4). However, in Colombia as in other developing countries, there are people without access to education, as well as cases where in spite of its availability, education is not of a high quality for all. This situation presents great challenges, in response to which educational policy has sought to improve the coverage of the system, above all in transition and in middle and further education which still have low rates of school attendance, as well as seeking to improve the quality of services via different strategies and programmes.

Our contribution

In this field, Econometría has carried out various evaluations of alternatives to elementary and secondary educational supply, such as flexible educational models, rural education programmes, licensed elementary schools, fusion of educational establishments, as well as interactive strategies at different educational levels to reduce school drop-out rates. Furthermore, we have analyzed the results of school day expansion programmes. For higher education we have worked principally in areas related to funding and incentives.

Financial Inclusion

Financial inclusion is one of the central aims of the national government, based on the understanding that more inclusive financial systems have positive impacts on the quality of life of the population as well as on general economic development. “Banca de las Opportunidades” (Opportunity Bank) is the National Government’s programme to promote financial inclusion in Colombia via public policies aimed at creating market incentives for inclusive financial services, as well as the reduction of access barriers.

Our contribution

In this field, Econometría has contributed to analysis of the supply and demand of financial services in rural and vulnerable populations, as well as the design of policies, programmes and instruments for financial inclusion. The majority of these projects have been carried out in association with Marulanda Consultants.

Climate Finance

Climate change is one of the world’s greatest threats. Colombia has pledged to reduce its emissions by 51% for 2030 and to be carbon neutral by 2050, and other Latin American countries have similarly ambitious goals. To reach them, policies and economic instruments must be designed and implemented which incentivize the private sector to innovate and invest in cleaner production as a complement to the efforts of the public sector and the international community.

Our contribution

As well as contributing to studies on environmental policy and economic assessment, at Econometría we have played an active part in the design and implementation of national strategies of climate funding. Similarly, we have participated in meteorological, legal, institutional, economic and financial studies aimed at the creation of political instruments that bring about fiscal and financially sustainable change for the environment.

Rural Development

Rural development

With poor living conditions and significant gaps in equality with urban zones, rural areas present a huge challenge for Colombia. The duration of this situation makes the challenge even greater, but at the same time is an area of tremendous potential for the country to increase income and improve living conditions in an environmentally sustainable way. Opportunities exist but capitalizing on them requires structured and systematic development.

Our contribution

We have been working in this setting for the last 15 years, carrying out more than 40 projects covering a wide range of areas: macro analysis, understanding of regional dynamics, conceptualization of the challenges of regional and rural development, policy for the operational setting of the sector, supply of cross-sectoral public goods, and evaluation of support programmes for agricultural producers. The breadth of our experience gives us a deep understanding of the context; as a result, we are able to offer resources to develop comprehensive strategies of support to rural areas.

Forced displacement

Forced displacement due to armed conflict

Armed conflict in Colombia has given rise to serious human rights violations, and has affected millions of people who have been forcibly displaced, losing their tangible as well as intangible capitol and suffering serious psychosocial consequences. In line with the existing rights of this population, an extensive base of regulation and case-law has been developed, giving way to public policy which requires an analysis of the population, as well as institutional evaluations of results and impact.

The humanitarian emergency of displaced populations in Colombia has indeed been tackled by the United Nations, ONGs and other organizations, contributing action plans for direct alimentary and non-alimentary assistance as well as psychosocial and livelihood support, and striving for long-term solutions.

Our contibution

Econometría has participated in multiple settings with the victims of forced displacement, as well as victims of other events. On the behalf of the government we have carried out analysis of victim populations, whether of forced displacement or of other events, through home surveys carried out by our representatives across the country, and have likewise contributed to the design and evaluation of public policies. In addition, for the United Nations and other organizations, we have carried out analysis of food insecurity and vulnerability since 2003 for the World Food Programme, and have evaluated interventions aimed at this population for the PMA, PNUD, OIM, ACNUR, FUPAD and the BID.

Science, technology and innovation

Science, technology and innovation are fundamentally important for economic development and social progress in an economy. Innovation creates jobs and allows scientific technique and technological know-how to be applied to products and services. At Econometría we have evaluated the results and impacts of the most significant programmes in Colombia.

Our contribution

Econometría has participated in the evaluation of the impact and results of incentives designed and implemented by Innpulsa Colombia, Minciencias and other related organizations to promote CTI, providing recommendations to deal with challenges and make adjustments to the tools and systems used. Similarly, we have helped to identify the characteristics which allow companies to achieve fast, profitable and sustainable growth through investment in CTI, leading to the creation of incentives to strengthen the ecosystem of innovation in the country.

Follow-up and monitoring systems

The entities responsible for coordinating or executing plans, programs or projects generally require instruments that facilitate the monitoring of the status of variables of interest or the follow-up of the fulfillment of goals and objectives. In this area, Econometría S.A. has developed follow-up and monitoring tools that range from conceptual design to the implementation of computer systems that facilitate the collection, processing, visualization and analysis of information for decision-making.

For the construction of this type of tools and according to the needs identified, we are able to address a comprehensive approach to the design of follow-up and monitoring models that may include the analysis of issues such as: theory of change, value chain, logical framework for implementation, construction of baselines, definition of indicators and the design and implementation of information systems.

Our contribution

Since 2014, we have worked on the development of projects that have strengthened decision making in different organizations by providing them with follow-up and monitoring models that are integrated into their processes and way of operating, and with IT tools that provide timely, reliable and easy-to-understand information. These are some of our projects.

Crecimiento por efectos base

Publicada el por aprendiz econometria

El dato de crecimiento de PIB dado por el DANE mostró que la economía creció 10.6% en 2021. Si el PIB se mantiene estancado en los niveles del último trimestre de 2021 durante todo 2022 la economía crecería 5.3%. De esta manera, se actualiza el pronóstico a 6.3%, el cual es como si la economía creciera a 3% en tiempos normales. Dicho crecimiento puede ser insuficiente para la generación de empleo.
