Análisis de la política social para la superación de la pobreza en Colombia, años 2002 a 2014

Abstract

Public policy has positioned itself as a fundamental tool and strategy in the exercise of public functions by the governments of the day. Within this, social policy is found as the instrument that provides the development and investment in human capital of the most vulnerable population in the country. At the same time, there are a series of indicators that measure poverty such as the Gini coefficient, which confirms the panorama of the social situation that occurs in the country in terms of distribution and inequality. Identifying the success of social programs is significant, since they will provide future guidelines for the formulation of new strategies for overcoming poverty.
