BACKGROUND
Since the 1995 World Summit on Social Development in Copenhagen, the global agenda on social development has advanced significantly, not only on a deeper understanding of challenges such as well-being, poverty, inequality, and discrimination, but also on a growing emphasis on upholding economic, social, and cultural rights.

La CEPAL ha conceptualizado esta realidad a través de la matriz de la desigualdad social, que permite visibilizar cómo distinta…
