Detail

According to the First Progress Report on the Implementation of the Second National Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Plan (Undersecretariat of Environment, 2024), progress was made during 2023 on a preliminary version of social vulnerability indices for disasters at the departmental level, incorporating a gender perspective. One of the main challenges to implementation was the availability of updated data from the 2022 National Population, Household and Housing Census, as well as the need for statistical data at the departmental level.

As next steps, the same document indicates that a procurement process would be launched to develop socioeconomic indicators of vulnerability to climate change incorporating a gender perspective, and to prepare a proposal for characterising social vulnerability to disasters at the local level based on non-conventional information sources.

Despite these challenges, the final document containing the updated indicators was published on the Environmental Information System (SInIA) platform. The report presents the methodological review and updated calculation of the Social Vulnerability Index for Disasters (IVSD), incorporating a gender perspective, for all departments across Argentina’s 24 jurisdictions, using the latest available data.

The report describes the methodology used to select the social vulnerability indicators for disasters and explains why some indicators included in the 2015 IVSD were removed, modified or replaced. It then presents the sixteen indicators included, provides the rationale for their selection and explains the relevance of incorporating a gender perspective.

In this context, and considering the publication of the official document, the target is classified as “Completed”.
