government transparency

The president defended the creation of the Presidential Unit for Data Analysis (UPAD) as a method to formulate public policies based on science and data.

Eight people are being investigated as part of the case, including President Carlos Alvarado.

The Costa Rican government on Friday repealed a decree that had created a Data Analysis Unit, after public criticism questioned its purpose and scope. 

Carlos Alvarado will announce in the coming days who will assume the positions of chancellor and vice chancellor.

“Sunlight is the best disinfectant.”
