UNC Uses Census Data to Target Job Training Amid Gran Córdoba Poverty

The Universidad Nacional de Córdoba has developed a data-driven method combining census data and urban expansion indicators to select locations for its School of Trades, targeting areas with 31% poverty and 10.5% unemployment. The approach, applied to 23,778 pre-registered students, won an award in Dubai. This reflects a localized policy response to economic distress in Gran Córdoba, though its broader impact remains uncertain.
