Data Reports

Original research on Mexico and Latin America, built from official records and published in full: the story, the dashboard, the methodology and the raw data.

Reports led by Roberto A. Arrucha, Director of Pro-Latam.

How these reports are made

Every figure is sourced

Not a single number without its origin. If a datum cannot be verified against the primary source, it is labelled as such or left out. It is never filled in.

Evidence level on show

Each figure states whether it is official, academic, an own calculation on official data, a press-reported figure or a scenario. The reader always knows what they are reading.

Downloadable data

Every series can be downloaded as CSV from the dashboard, and the methodology explains how each derived indicator was built.
