Ciclovías en Santiago: evaluación y propuestas de mejoramiento
(Centro de Desarrollo Urbano Sustentable, 2024) Mora Vega, Rodrigo; Vecchio, Giovanni; Tiznado Aitken, Ignacio Andrés; Oyarzún, Gabriel; Vergara, Jaime; CEDEUS (Chile)
La red de ciclovías de Santiago (440 km) tiene importantes disparidades en cobertura por comuna, calidad de la infraestructura y continuidad de la red, a los que se suman requerimientos de diseño a nivel ministerial que pueden ser confusos e incluso contradictorios. Este documento presenta estas incongruencias para el caso de Santiago y propone medidas para la implementación de ciclovías de calidad.
Colonial Ideologies, Narratives, and Popular Perceptions of Ethno-racial Otherness in the Dynamics of Urban Exclusion: Debates and Evidence from Mexico, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2021) Ruiz Tagle, Javier; Aguilera, Carolina; CEDEUS (Chile)
Although ethnic differentiations began with colonialism, racism was not widely addressed in Latin American social sciences until recently, since class perspectives were predominant. Within this, studies on residential segregation and urban exclusion have ignored race and ethnicity, with the exceptions of Brazil and Colombia. However, these issues have recently become crucial because of the adoption of multiculturalism, the impact of postcolonialism and postmodernism, the emergence of black and indigenous social movements, changes in state policy, and new trends in migration. A review of debates and evidence from Mexico, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina shows that persistent colonial ideologies, narratives, and popular perceptions of ethno-racial denial sustain various kinds of urban exclusion in the region. The evidence calls for a new research agenda to decolonize urban studies that adopts a critical perspective on the coloniality of power. Aunque las diferenciaciones etnicas comenzaron con el colonialismo, el racismo no se abordo ampliamente en las ciencias sociales latinoamericanas hasta hace poco, ya que predominaban las perspectivas de clase. Los estudios sobre la segregacion residencial y la exclusion urbana han ignorado la raza y el origen etnico, con excepcion de Brasil y Colombia. Sin embargo, estas cuestiones se han vuelto cruciales recientemente debido a la adopcion del multiculturalismo, el impacto del poscolonialismo y el posmodernismo, la aparicion de movimientos sociales negros e indigenas, los cambios en la politica estatal y nuevas tendencias en la migracion. Una revision de los debates y evidencia en Mexico, Colombia, Chile y Argentina muestra que las ideologias coloniales persistentes, las narrativas y las percepciones populares de la negacion etnoracial sostienen varios tipos de exclusion urbana en la region. La evidencia exige una nueva agenda de investigacion para descolonizar los estudios urbanos y adoptar una perspectiva critica sobre la colonialidad del poder.
Effects of an urban regeneration program on related social determinants of health in Chile: A pre-post intervention study
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021) López-Contreras, Natalia; Puig-Barrachina, Vanessa; Vives Vergara, Alejandra; Olave-Müller, Paola; Gotsens, Mercè; CEDEUS (Chile); Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Escuela de Medicina
Urban regeneration programs, such as “Programa Quiero mi Barrio” (PQMB) that is carried out in neighborhoods with greater deprivation across Chile, can improve health and quality of life in socio-economically deprived neighborhoods. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of this program on the physical, social, and safety environments of neighborhoods intervened between 2011 and 2018, according to gender and socioeconomic position. Four indices and six sub-indices were constructed to measure physical, social, and safety environments of the neighborhoods. We conducted a pre- and post-intervention analysis with 2095 people using linear models adjusted for repeated measurements. After the intervention, participants had an improved perception of physical, social, and safety environments, as well as the use of spaces, particularly among women and people with higher levels of education. Therefore, the PQMB program is a form of public policy that can improve the quality of life and health of people living in underprivileged areas.
Experiences of insecurity among non-standard workers across different welfare states: A qualitative cross-country study
(2023) Bosmans, Kim; Vignola, Emilia F.; Alvarez-Lopez, Valentina; Julia, Mireia; Ahonen, Emily Q.; Bolibar, Mireia; Gutierrez-Zamora, Mariana; Ivarsson, Lars; Kvart, Signild; Muntaner, Carles; O'Campo, Patricia; Ruiz, Marisol E.; Vanerhagen, Kristian; Cuervo, Isabel; Davis, Letitia; Diaz, Ignacio; Escrig-Pinol, Astrid; Gunnj, Virginia; Lewchuk, Wayne; Ostergren, Per-Olof; Padrosa, Eva; Vilchez, David; Vives Vergara, Alejandra; Vos, Mattias; Zaupa, Alessandro; Bodin, Theo; Baron, Sherry L.; CEDEUS (Chile)
In recent decades, economic crises and political reforms focused on employment flexibilization have increased the use of non-standard employment (NSE). National political and economic contexts determine how employers interact with labour and how the state interacts with labour markets and manages social welfare policies. These factors influence the prevalence of NSE and the level of employment insecurity it creates, but the extent to which a country's policy context mitigates the health influences of NSE is unclear. This study describes how workers experience insecurities created by NSE, and how this influences their health and well-being, in countries with different welfare states: Belgium, Canada, Chile, Spain, Sweden, and the United States. Interviews with 250 workers in NSE were analysed using a multiple-case study approach. Workers in all countries experienced multiple insecurities (e.g., income and employment insecurity) and relational tension with employers/clients, with negative health and well-being influences, in ways that were shaped by social inequalities (e.g., related to family support or immigration status). Welfare state differences were reflected in the level of workers' exclusion from social protections, the time scale of their insecurity (threatening daily survival or longer-term life planning), and their ability to derive a sense of control from NSE. Workers in Belgium, Sweden, and Spain, countries with more generous welfare states, navigated these insecurities with greater success and with less influence on health and well-being. Findings contribute to our understanding of the health and well-being influences of NSE across different welfare regimes and suggest the need in all six countries for stronger state responses to NSE. Increased investment in universal and more equal rights and benefits in NSE could reduce the widening gap between standard and NSE.
From Community to Public Familiarity: Neighborhood, Sociability, and Belonging in the Neoliberal City
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2021) Link, Felipe; Senoret, Andres; Valenzuela, Felipe; CEDEUS (Chile)
Current urban neoliberalism processes have shaped and changed contemporary cities, including the local scale's built environment and social relations. This article aims to study how such transformations affect local sociability by analyzing the effects of neighborhoods' morphology and socio-demographic characteristics on different forms of interactions and how they affect the sense of belonging. Taking the Metropolitan Area of Santiago, Chile, as a case study, we gathered secondary data on urban morphology and surveyed ten neighborhoods to measure sociability patterns. The results obtained from multilevel logistic regression models show that time living in the neighborhood and public pedestrian space is the most critical factor affecting neighborhood sociability. Moreover, instead of local ties, public familiarity is the form of sociability with the most substantial effects on a sense of belonging. We conclude that recent neighborhoods, formed by neoliberal urbanization, tend to discourage neighborhood sociability and a sense of belonging.
Improvements in habitability and housing satisfaction after dwelling regeneration in social housing complexes. The RUCAS study
(2024) González, Francisca; Baeza Rivas, Fernando Antonio; Valdebenito, Roxana; Sánchez, B.N.; Diez-Roux, A.; Vives Vergara, Alejandra; CEDEUS (Chile)
Housing is a pressing problem worldwide and a key determinant of health and wellbeing. The right to adequate housing, as a pillar of the right to an adequate standard of living, means more than a roof to live under. Adequate means the dwelling must fulfill material functions and psychosocial functions, thus contributing to dwellers health and wellbeing. Social housing policies aim to fulfill the right to housing, but frequently fail in fulfilling the right to it being adequate.This study capitalizes on the implementation of a national urban regeneration program in two social housing villas in central Chile (one in Santiago, in the central valley, the other in Vina˜ del Mar, a coastal city) to run a natural experiment assessing the impact of dwelling renovation on several dimensions of perceived habitability and housing satisfaction among the -mostly female-household homemakers. We use 5 waves of survey data collected with a step-wedge design to estimate the association between a timevarying exposure status (the intervention) and 7 binary outcomes for habitability and 5 for housing dissatisfaction, including overall housing satisfaction. We use Poisson regression models with robust variance and a random intercept at the respondent level. At baseline, reports of poor habitability and dissatisfaction across all features were markedly high, the highest levels of dissatisfaction being with acoustic insulation and dwelling size in both villas, and with indoor temperature in Santiago. The intervention resulted in statistically significant and markedly large improvements in reported habitability and dissatisfaction relative to those housing componentstargeted by the intervention, as well as with overall dwelling satisfaction in both study cases.Implications are, first, that the policy response to quantitative housing deficits must not overlook housing quality; second, that housing renovation appears as a promising intervention for qualitative housing crises; third, that while improvements in habitability and satisfaction are specific to the interventions in place, overall housing satisfaction can improve in more limited, tailored, dwelling renovation interventions. Social housing renovation in Latin America appears as a promising intervention to improve quality of life among the urban poor dwellers and reduce inequalities in health related to housing conditions.
Inequalities in job-related accessibility: Testing an evaluative approach and its policy relevance in Buenos Aires
(2019) Vecchio, Giovanni; Lanza, Giovanni; Bocchimuzzi, Lucia; Pucci, Paola; CEDEUS (Chile)
Accessibility, as a requisite to guarantee the individual ability to participate in valued activities, has been receiving increasing yet scattered attention from diverse theoretical and operational approaches. These approaches focus on how individuals are able to engage in out-of-home activities, participate in social life as well as on their involvement in other activities that contribute to their overall well-being. The paper aims at further investigating such approaches, analysing forms of inequality in job-related mobilities while assuming that a person's accessibility depends on both contextual and individual factors. Taking the Buenos Aires metropolitan area as a suitable testbed, the paper offers an approach to identify the inequalities in job-related accessibility at the neighbourhood scale. The approach considers the relationship between the quality and supply of public transport, level of social exclusion and reachable employment opportunities. The research proposes a synthetic index of inequalities in access to job opportunities (IAO) to identify disadvantaged urban areas characterized by a confluence of problems related to socio-economic deprivations, low accessibility to employment as well as a low mobility and poor quality of transport supply. The approach has an explicit operational dimension and intends to contribute to outlining tailored measures to guarantee better job opportunities, as in the case of people living in areas experiencing sub-standard levels of accessibility to workplaces.

La crisis del COVID-19 en Chile: análisis de las transformaciones en el tejido social de los barrios del Gran Santiago
(2024) Fuentes Arce, Luis Alejandro; Greene Zúñiga, Margarita; Rodríguez, Sebastián; Figueroa, Cristhian; CEDEUS (Chile)
La comunicación inicial en la crisis sanitaria en Chile se focalizó en el autocuidado indivi-dual, pero la difusión espacial de los contagios desnudó graves problemas en la configuración espacial de nuestras ciudades. Así, barrio y vivienda, tuvieron nuevosusos, que, si bien se dan en un contexto que amplifica las desigualdades socio espaciales tradicionales existentes antes de la pandemia, también muestran particularidades propias de su localización en la ciudad, con respecto a equipamientos, acce-sibilidade identidad. Usando datos de una encuesta EPDUS realizada pre y post crisis del COVID-19, este trabajo describe las condiciones socioterritoriales, los cambios en los usos y prácticas espaciales, el rol de los vínculos sociales y el papel del barrio como escala de contención y apoyo mutuo para enfrentar la pandemia. La conclusión nos muestra que diferentes tipologías de barrio en el área metro-politana de Santiago configuran espacios desiguales que determinan la posibilidad de construcción de vínculos sociales de apoyo, colaboración y cuidado en crisis como la del COVID-19. Palabras clave: COVID-19; crisis; barrio; vivienda; Gran Santiago.

The concept of a so-called urban advantage in health ignores the possibility of heterogeneity in health outcomes across cities. Using a harmonized dataset from the SALURBAL project, we describe variability and predictors of life expectancy and proportionate mortality in 363 cities across nine Latin American countries. Life expectancy differed substantially across cities within the same country. Cause-specific mortality also varied across cities, with some causes of death (unintentional and violent injuries and deaths) showing large variation within countries, whereas other causes of death (communicable, maternal, neonatal and nutritional, cancer, cardiovascular disease and other noncommunicable diseases) varied substantially between countries. In multivariable mixed models, higher levels of education, water access and sanitation and less overcrowding were associated with longer life expectancy, a relatively lower proportion of communicable, maternal, neonatal and nutritional deaths and a higher proportion of deaths from cancer, cardiovascular disease and other noncommunicable diseases. These results highlight considerable heterogeneity in life expectancy and causes of death across cities of Latin America, revealing modifiable factors that could be amenable to urban policies aimed toward improving urban health in Latin America and more generally in other urban environments.
Migración haitiana en Santiago: una aproximación multiescalar y temporal
(PONTIFICIA UNIV CATOLICA CHILE, INST ESTUDIOS URBANOS TERRITORIALES, 2022) Edwards Cosmelli, Rosario Maria Graciela; Greene, Margarita; CEDEUS (Chile)
In the context of an increasing immigration to Chile from Latin America and the Caribe, which is equivalent to an 87,8% of the country immigrant population by 2017, this article focuses on the Haitian migration, one of the most significant of the last period. Migrant living is analyzed in Santiago city from a multiscalar and temporal approach with complementary methods and scales. We describe the processes of territorial occupation of the main groups at the city level, as well as the strategies of social and economic insertion at the neighborhood level. Afterwards we identify the configurations of the housing group at the domestic scale. Analyzing these migratory dynamics simultaneously and at different scales reveals how interpersonal networks spatially organize migrations and shape the spaces that host them at all levels.
"My life will be much better than before": a qualitative study on the relationship between renewal of public housing, quality of life, and health
(2023) Orlando-Romero, Laura; Vives-Vergara, Alejandra; Valdebenito, Roxana; Cortinez-O'Ryan, Andrea; Baeza, Fernando; Rasse, Alejandra; CEDEUS (Chile)
The objective was to understand the link between housing, health and quality of life in a context of social housing regeneration, through the experi-ences and perceptions of its inhabitants, exploring the mechanisms that sustain this link before regen-eration, and those elements derived from housing regeneration that result in improvements in qual-ity of life and potentially in health. Between 1980 and the 2000s, Chile faced a massive quantitative housing deficit through a policy that delivered more than 120,000 low-cost social housing apart-ments. Today, thousands present severe habitabil-ity problems, generating negative consequences for their inhabitants, their health and well-being. Seeking to solve the deterioration of housing and neighborhoods, the Chilean Ministry of Housing and Urbanism developed the Housing Complex Regeneration Program. The RUCAS project seeks to evaluate the effects of the program on health and to assess the impact of interventions such as these on vulnerable populations in Latin Ameri-ca. We present results of 8 interviews and 2 focus groups conducted in a social housing complex in process of intervention in Vina del Mar. Using dis-cursive content analysis, results show that the poor material quality of housing is perceived as harm-ful to health. Regenerated housing, on the other hand, promotes the recovery and re-appropriation of spaces and their uses, sociability, new healthy practices, positive feelings and psychological well-being, bringing to the fore the psychosocial com-ponent of people's relationship with their house. It is concluded that housing regeneration has the potential to benefit physical and mental health through both direct mechanisms, derived from the renovated materiality, and indirect mechanisms related to the practices and experiences of the lived space.
Team-based incentives in transportation firms: An experiment
(2022) Ramírez Garat, Vicente Nicolás; Galilea, Patricia; Poblete Lavanchy, Joaquin Jose; Silva M., Hugo; CEDEUS (Chile)
Providing the right incentives to bus drivers has become an issue in many cities worldwide. Liberalization experiences and research have shown that high-powered incentives lead to safety hazards, lack of service in low-demand areas, and poor service quality. Fixed-wage schemes, common in tendered systems, are among the leading causes of increased fare evasion, as drivers do not control payment adequately. In a controlled experimental setting, we show that team-based incentives induce levels of effort similar to those provided by an individual pay-for -performance scheme but without undesirable operational decisions. We find that team contracts eliminate the conflict of interest between drivers, causing drivers to control the passengers' payment while maintaining more regular speeds. Consequently, reducing safety hazards and rushing through low-demand stops, avoiding excessive waiting times, and keeping a uniform distribution in the passenger load. These characteristics are absent in the individual contract and are a crucial part of the quality of service.
The damages of stigma, the benefits of prestige: Examining the consequences of perceived residential reputations on neighbourhood attachment
(Wiley, 2023) Otero G.; Ramond Q.; Mendez M.L.; Carranza R.; Link F.; Ruiz-Tagle J.; CEDEUS (Chile)
© Urban Studies Journal Limited 2023.This study examines how perceived residential reputations – that is, how people think non-residents assess the reputation of their neighbourhood – affect neighbourhood attachment, including residents’ sense of belonging, local civic membership, social relationships and compliance with social rules and norms in the neighbourhood. We focus on Santiago, the capital city of Chile: a highly segregated context. We use data from the Chilean Longitudinal Social Survey (ELSOC, 2016–2019) and information on neighbourhood characteristics. Results show that perceived residential reputations affect neighbourhood attachment, even after adjusting for time-invariant individual heterogeneity and lagged dependent variables. Specifically, perceived stigma reduces residents’ neighbourhood identification, physical rootedness, trust and sociability with neighbours, while positive perceived reputations improve these components of neighbourhood attachment, although to a lesser extent. However, perceived residential reputations do not affect the formation of strong ties between neighbours or local participation, suggesting that residential reputations mainly influence affective components of neighbourhood attachment. We conclude that perceived residential reputations reinforce the influence of individual characteristics and objective neighbourhood conditions in producing diverging patterns of neighbourhood attachment, with broader implications for social inequality in the city.
The income equality dividend in ‘green’ infrastructure: Evidence from the transport and waste sectors in the OECD

The Regeneración Urbana, Calidad de Vida y Salud - RUCAS project: a Chilean multi-methods study to evaluate the impact of urban regeneration on resident health and wellbeing
(2021) Baeza Rivas, Fernando; Vives Vergara, Alejandra; González López, Francisca Teresa; Orlando, Laura; Valdebenito, Roxana; Cortínez-O’Ryan, Andrea; Slesinski, Claire; Diez Roux, Ana V.; CEDEUS (Chile)
Abstract Background The available evidence of the health effects of urban regeneration is scarce In Latin America, and there are no studies focused on formal housing that longitudinally evaluate the impact of housing and neighborhood interventions on health. The “Regeneración Urbana, Calidad de Vida y Salud” (Urban Regeneration, Quality of Life, and Health) or RUCAS project is a longitudinal, multi-method study that will evaluate the impact of an intervention focused on dwellings, built environment and community on the health and wellbeing of the population in two social housing neighborhoods in Chile. Methods RUCAS consists of a longitudinal study where inhabitants exposed and unexposed to the intervention will be compared over time within the study neighborhoods (cohorts), capitalizing on interventions as a natural experiment. Researchers have developed a specific conceptual framework and identified potential causal mechanisms. Proximal and more distal intervention effects will be measured with five instruments, implemented pre- and post-interventions between 2018 and 2021: a household survey, an observation tool to evaluate dwelling conditions, hygrochrons for measuring temperature and humidity inside dwellings, systematic observation of recreational areas, and qualitative interviews. Survey baseline data (956 households, 3130 individuals) is presented to describe sociodemographics, housing and health characteristics of both cohorts, noting that neighborhoods studied show worse conditions than the Chilean population. Discussion RUCAS’ design allows for a comprehensive evaluation of the effects that the intervention could have on various dimensions of health and health determinants. RUCAS will face some challenges, like changes in the intervention process due to adjustments of the master plan, exogenous factors –including COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns– and lost to follow-up. Given the stepped wedge design, that the study capitalizes on within household changes over time, the possibility of adjusting data collection process and complementarity of methods, RUCAS has the flexibility to adapt to these circumstances. Also, RUCAS’ outreach and retention strategy has led to high retention rates. RUCAS will provide evidence to inform regeneration processes, highlighting the need to consider potential health effects of regeneration in designing such interventions and, more broadly, health as a key priority in urban and housing policies.
The rich and mobility : A new look into the impacts of income inequality on household transport expenditures

Transporte y equidad: abordando la accesibilidad en los márgenes urbanos
(2022) Muñoz Abogabir, Juan Carlos; Vecchio, Giovanni; Tiznado Aitken, Ignacio Andrés; Guzmán, Luis Angel; Arellana, Julián; Guimaraes, Thiago; CEDEUS (Chile)
La movilidad urbana se vincula directamente con la equidad dado que la movilidad contribuye al bienestar de las personas y al desarrollo de la sociedad. Sin embargo, los países latinoamericanos muestran fuertes desigualdades relacionadas con la movilidad, visibles en la localización de los habitantes, sus prácticas de movilidad y su acceso a las oportunidades urbanas. Aunque estas desigualdades están particularmente presentes en las zonas tanto periféricas como periurbanas, que se encuentran a los márgenes de las áreas metropolitanas consolidadas, todavía la investigación y la política no han trabajado directamente con estos contextos. Por estas razones, nuestro proyecto propone definir lineamientos de políticas públicas para garantizar una accesibilidad más justa y sustentable en los márgenes, tanto urbanos como periurbanos, de las áreas metropolitanas consolidadas. Abordando un trabajo de campo en las zonas periurbanas de Bogotá, Santiago y São Paulo, este proyecto busca describir la movilidad y accesibilidad de las zonas marginales de las grandes metrópolis de Brasil, Chile y Colombia, analizando necesidades de los usuarios y estrategias públicas para la movilidad de estas zonas. El resultado esperado son recomendaciones operacionales que permitan enfrentar el desafío de un transporte más equitativo y sustentable.
