Fundación Ethos is a nonprofit, nonpartisan Think Tank committed to the analysis of relevant issues for Mexico and Latin America's development, the evaluation and design of technically sound public policies, and the promotion of the Responsible Government Model.
Our organization has been one of the first research centers to approach the theme of poverty, social policy and spending in depth in Mexico. As a result, we have broad experience and recognition in the field. Part of the research has been shown in a three volume series titled El Gasto Social en México, Los gastos fiscales como herramienta para el desarrollo económico, amonst others.
Additionally, in recent years, our organization has been dedicated to the development of a multidimensional poverty index for Latin America. This is because a definition of poverty based on income is limited and does not necessarily reflect the real living conditions of the population. In this regard, Fundación Ethos finds it appropriate to consider in the definition of poverty – as well as household characteristics – dimensions that form the political, environmental, social, economic, and institutional context of individuals. Some of these variables include environment, political stability, corruption, democracy, gender equality, and competitiveness, among others. All of the previously mentioned factors have a powerful influence on the wellbeing and standards of living of individuals and, therefore, Fundación Ethos has incorporated them in different studies and analyses of poverty.
Fundación Ethos team consists of a multidisciplinary group of experts that have a solid academic and professional background. Our mission is to apply a rigorous methodology in order to reach excellence in all our projects and research, as well as practical applicability of our results.
