The MECOVI program --short for
"Programa para el Mejoramiento de las Encuestas de
Hogares y la Medicion de Condiciones de Vida", a
Spanish acronym for the Regional Program for Improvement of
the Surveys and Measurement of the Living Conditions in
Latin America and the Caribbean.--was launched in 1996, as a
joint initiative of the Inter-American Development Bank
(IDB), the World Bank, and the United Nations Economic
Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (UN-ECLAC).
It was driven by the need to improve the statistical
knowledge base on household poverty and living conditions at
the household level in the region. The program has two
principal components: (1) activities at the country level;
and (2) regional activities (training, workshops and
organization of the household survey database). |
