This grant would allow Gesoc to develop the next two editions of the Social Programs Performance Index, and replicate it at the state level, as well as in at least one other Latin American country. Gesoc aims to improve the design, performance, transparency, and quality of public spending in Mexico for social programs targeted at vulnerable and poor populations.
for assessing federal evaluation policies that are linked to performance-based public spending
This grant will enable Gesoc to continue tracking the efficiency of subsidy programs by updating its rankings on the design and performance of subsidy programs. Gesoc’s ultimate goal is for performance information to be incorporated into budget efficiency analysis and decision making. The organization will also develop, with support from partners such as the Mexican technology group CitiVox, IT applications to disseminate the data they produce in low-cost, user-friendly formats appealing to a wide array of audiences.
