Abstract

This research analyzes and assesses perceptions of inequality in access to quality education amongst Chilean young people (aged 18 to 29) and compares them with other age groups. The 2016 survey Encuesta Desigualdades Económicas y Sociales, conducted by the UNDP office in Chile, was used to identify whether social disaffection caused by inequality in access to quality education is felt solely amongst young people or whether a universal phenomenon across the population as a whole.
