Between 2000 and 2013, Latin America has considerably reduced poverty (from 46.3 to 29.7 % of the population). In this paper, we use synthetic panels to show that, despite progress, the region remains characterized by substantial vulnerability that also affects the rising middle class. More specifically, we find that 65 % of those with daily income between $4 and 10, and 14 % of those in the middle class experience poverty at least once over a 10-year period. Furthermore, chronic poverty remains widespread (representing 91 and 50 % of extreme and moderate poverty, respectively). Differences between rural and urban areas are substantial. Urban areas, which are now home to most moderate poor and vulnerable, are characterized by higher income mobility, particularly upward mobility. These findings have important implications for the design of effective social safety nets. These need to mix long-term interventions for the chronic poor, especially in rural areas, with flexible short-term support to a large group of transient poor and vulnerable, particularly in urban areas.

Los sistemas de cuidados de larga duración o sistemas de atención a la dependencia son uno de los campos de las políticas sociales que han estado adquiriendo creciente protagonismo en los países desarrollados en los últimos decenios y, aunque de manera incipiente todavía, mayor visibilidad en los países de ingresos medios o en vías de desarrollo. Diversos organismos han llamado la atención sobre el aumento de la necesidad de cuidados de largo plazo, en particular para las personas que requieren apoyos para la realización de actividades en la vida cotidiana. Las tendencias demográficas observadas en un grupo importante de países de América Latina y El Caribe (ALC) y particularmente en Costa Rica muestran que la atención de las personas de edad avanzada, que portan alguna discapacidad, que están afectadas por una enfermedad crónica o que tienen problemas de salud complejos, se ha convertido en uno de los principales retos para los sistemas sociosanitarios.
