According to the latest Argentine Catholic University’s (UCA) Argentine Social Debt Watch report, 40.5% of our population lives in poverty.
In addition, extreme poverty (those people who are not able to meet even their basic food needs) is as much as almost 9% of the population.
The situation is specially worrying for children and adolescents, with 60% of them living below the poverty line.
