Why was Signos Vitales born?

The use of “other data” to inform the population, or to show that the decisions being made are appropriate, has been increasing. Much of this “other data” is not verifiable nor is there documentation to support it.

We live in a situation where information is limited and doubts about its veracity are increasing, with obstacles to knowing our reality and the effectiveness of public policy.

Not having reliable information about the reality of the country leads to delays and multiple difficulties of all kinds: informed decisions cannot be made, the design of public policy has problems of origin, its evaluation is not possible and society does not have reliable information.

What we do

Our work focuses on:

1
Collection of data related to the country’s vital signs that are already produced, or estimation of these data using information from national and international information sources.

2
Quarterly report with expert analysis and data on the general state of the country and relevant issues that constitute alerts for public opinion.

3
Broad dissemination, bilingual, nationally and internationally.

Our objectives

1
Collect reliable and independent information on the key variables of our economic, political and sociocultural life to make known with a good degree of certainty the state of the country.

2
Report the state of our country, warn about imminent problems and periodically disseminate it nationally and internationally.

3
Serve as a reference that shows the direction that Mexico is taking, at the national and international level, and as a warning voice on those relevant issues when the viability of the country, social harmony, prosperity for all, respect for human rights, democracy and freedom could be in danger.

Our work is carried out in a collegial manner, advised by the Executive and Specialist Advisory Committees.
