a. Database: ENDES
b. Information: The ENDES (National Survey of Demographic and of Family´s Health), is a comprehensive survey conducted by the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI) in Peru.
This survey aims to gather vital information about household living conditions, demographics, education, employment, and health.
It is a key source of data for understanding the socio-economic landscape, poverty rates, and other critical indicators at the household level.
ENDES is conducted annually, providing a rich and dynamic dataset that captures the evolving realities of Peruvian households over time.

c. Interest: As an economist, I am particularly drawn to the ENDES database due to its robust nature and the depth of economic and social insights it offers.
The survey's broad coverage allows for the exploration of various economic phenomena, such as income distribution, employment patterns, and poverty dynamics.
The longitudinal aspect of ENDES is especially valuable, providing the opportunity to analyze trends and patterns that can inform evidence-based policy recommendations. Working with the ENDES dataset aligns with my professional interest in contributing to research and policy discussions aimed at enhancing socio-economic well-being.
The comprehensive nature of ENDES makes it an indispensable resource for any economist seeking a nuanced understanding of household dynamics, economic disparities, and the effectiveness of social programs in Peru.
