• Poverty_in_Mexico abstract "Indigenous communities suffer particularly from poverty causing them to be marginalised from society. Although “local and federal governments implemented social protection programs so as to alleviate poverty conditions and interregional disparities, in general, conditions for indigenous people remain unchanged,” (Gonzales cited World Bank, 2005). In fact, studies have shown that ethnicity is an important cause for inequality in income distribution, access to basic health care services and education, which in turn explain the significant difference in earnings between indigenous and non-indigenous people. According to the World Bank, about three-quarters of indigenous peoples in Mexico are poor and the gap between indigenous and non-indigenous groups is very high; the difference in poverty has been divided into explained and unexplained components. The explained components are “the amount of the gap attributed to observable characteristics such as education, age, occupation, region of residence and so on,” (World Bank, 2005) which account for three quarters of poverty. The unexplained components are related to the level of discrimination and explain a quarter of the poverty. Indigenous people in Mexico are faced to significant disadvantages in economic and social outcomes and although discrimination against them appears to be decreasing, the government needs to improve education and government services to reduce the poverty gap. Based on their research, the World Bank suggests the promotion of equal health care access for indigenous peoples “though the implementation of a head start program that focuses on maternal and child health issues,” (World Bank, 2005) as well as improving “data collection efforts related to identifying indigenous populations,” (World Bank, 2005) to better monitor progress over time. Poverty in Mexico is measured under parameters such as nutrition, clean water, shelter, education, health care, social security, quality and basic services in the household, income and social cohesion as defined by social development laws in the country. It is divided in two categories: Moderate poverty and Extreme poverty.While less than 2% of Mexico's population lives below the international poverty line set by the World Bank, as of 2013 Mexico's government estimates that 33% of Mexico's population lives on moderate poverty and 9% lives on extreme poverty, which leds to a 42% of Mexico's total population living below the national poverty line. The huge gap might be explained due the government adopting the multidimensional poverty method as a way to measure poverty, so, a person who might have an income higher than the "international poverty line" or "well being income line" set by the Mexican government might fall on the "moderate poverty" category if has one or more deficiencies related to social rights such as education (didn't completed studies), nutrition (either malnutrition or obesity) or living standards (going from elemental ones such as water or electricity to secondary domestic assets such as refrigerator, etc.). Extreme poverty is defined by the Mexican government as persons who have deficiencies in both areas: social rights and an income lower than the "well being income line" Additional figures from SEDESOL (Mexico's Social Development Agencie) estimates that 6% (7.4 millions of people) live in extreme poverty and also suffer from food insecurityMexico's positive potential and the result of millions in poverty is always a topic of discussion among opinion-makers. Some economists have speculated that in four more decades of continuous economic growth, despite common trends in Mexico such as emigration and violence, Mexico will be among the five biggest economies in the world, along with China, the United States, Japan, and India.In recent times, extensive changes in government economic policy and attempts at reducing government interference through privatization of several sectors, for better or worse, has allowed Mexico to historically remain the biggest economy in Latin America, until 2005 when it became the second-largest; and a so-called "trillion dollar club" member. Despite theses changes, Mexico continues to suffer great social inequality and lack of opportunities. The current administration has made an approach at reducing poverty in the country, to provide more opportunities to its citizens such as jobs, education and the installation of universal healthcare.".
