This research focuses on
evaluating coverage results, targeting mechanisms, coherence of objectives,
goals and actions developed by social programs, as well as the social
impact expressed in the reduction of extreme poverty and the improvement of the
quality of life of the target population in the Puno region. The method used is Differences in Differences; this design allows us to incorporate some degree of pre-existing
differences between the treatment group and the control group, controlling for
observable characteristics of the latter. The results found at the level of the
region as a result of the implementation of the evaluated programs show a
positive impact on the components evaluated: Targeting system (leaks and
subcodes); achievement and fulfillment of program objectives and goals;
transfer and delivery of economic subsidies and improvement of their welfare;
food attention to the target population (Qaliwarma and Vaso de Leche), which
shows the importance of social programs in favor of the poorest population and
the extreme poor. Finally, we analyze whether the effect of receiving the
monetary transfer on the monthly income in the household, which is directly
related to the improvement of the users’ welfare in both the “Together” and “Pension
65” programs, however, these effects are heterogeneous when presenting components
and the reduction of multidimensional poverty in the Puno region.
