Evidence snapshot for Chile
Chile has implemented several evidence-backed institutional innovations across governance, inclusion, and technology. Law 21.216 achieved gender parity in its Constitutional Convention with 49.7% women representation, while ChileCompra's preventive data-intelligence system detected 12,395 potential conflicts of interest across $3.9 billion in reviewed procurement in 2025. BiblioRedes connects 450+ public libraries and has served 1.86 million users with 856,514 training actions since 2002, and Lazarillo, a university-incubated app for blind and low-vision users, reached 6,000–12,000 active users across 14–29 countries. However, evidence on Start-Up Chile's impact is limited: a 2010–12 evaluation found only 24% of foreign grantees actually located in Chile, with survival rates below domestic seed programmes.
