Quiénes Somos
Chile lacks a national platform that combines academic independence, sustained analytical capacity, and the translation of evidence into public health policy recommendations. The UDP Health Observatory fills this gap: it monitors, interprets, and communicates the country’s health situation with scientific rigor and a commitment to the public good.
What we Do
- Monitors the health situation in Chile from a comparative perspective.
- Analyzes the performance of the health care system and its reforms.
- Generates actionable evidence for decision-makers.
- Communicates findings to civil society, the press, and academia.
- Publishes research in indexed journals.
