Coordination Meeting of ACCEDES Project in Venezuela

The coordination meeting of ACCEDES "Access and academic success of vulnerable groups in hazardous environments in Latin America" (DCI-ALA/2011/232) should serve to realize the indicators that help describe the vulnerability of the groups who are the focus of attention of the project. The researchers must identify indicators related to poverty and social exclusion (external ones) and other related internal factors.

The identification of indicators of poverty and exclusion in the Latin America of Andes region should be a base for further development of instrument for identifying  those groups most likely to be at the focus of the project, while it will be the basic tool for its characterization and for obtaining key information for the development and design of subsequent actions.

To be consistent with the context within which it is sought to define the indicators (the Andes Region), members from Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia, together with collaborators from Colombia, and the support of France, Spain, Mexico, Italy and Portugal, will participate in this meeting.
