Financial Inclusion, Content, and Information Technologies in Latin America
Abstract
While the current scientific literature is quite scarce for most of the developing world, several leading researchers have made great strides in understanding the role of cyber technologies and related information and communication technologies (ICT) in economic development. A good proportion of this work lays on interventions in the regions of South Asia and Africa. However, cyber-behavior research focused on Latin America has been very limited. Recently, some researchers have taken steps to apply rigorous statistical tools in a systematic way to evaluate how these technologies contributed to the success of several development projects in the region of Latin America. In this chapter, the authors summarize a number of specific cyber-interventions that have taken place in Latin America and that may lead to a better understanding of the impact of interventions to know what works, what does not, and why. The common thread of all the existing cyber-behavior research is that tools must go hand in hand with high quality messaging and content for them to be fully effective.
