Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Investment in human capital by socioeconomic status in Uruguay

Physical description: 11 p.Notes: Sumario: The present study uses estimations of the National Accounts system by age and socioeconomic status to analyze inequalities in human capital investment in children. Socioeconomic status is proxied by the household head's education; children are the population under age 21; human capital comprises education and health consumption of National Accounts. The estimates suggest that funding human capital requires the re-assignation of resources between ages and socioeconomic groups and makes evident the central role of government interventions in redistribution. Nevertheless, differences in investment are relevant primarily because of investments funded with private resourcesRelated records: En: The Journal of the economics of ageing . - Oxford : Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2021-. - 05/02/2024 Volumen 27 - 2024 , 11 p.Materia / lugar / evento: Inversiones Recursos humanos Análisis socioeconómico Cuentas nocionales Educación Salud Uruguay Otros autores: González, Cecilia
