Abstract

El impacto del desplazamiento sobre el bienestar de los hogares genera vulnerabilidades que deben ser atendidas por políticas especialmente dirigidas a este grupo de la población. Sin embargo, las dinámicas del desplazamiento forzoso imponen restos importantes al momento de disenar las políticas necesarias. En casos de conflictos de baja intensidad, como es el caso colombiano, el principal reto se presenta en el momento de identificar la población desplazada. Dado que la mayoría de los desplazamientos ocurren de forma individual, un sistema de asistencia basado en mecanismos de oferta implica costos muy altos. En Colombia, el Sistema Único de Registro (SUR) es el encargado de la asistencia a la población desplazada. El SUR es un sistema basado en mecanismos de demanda en el que la población desplazada debe acudir a las oficinas del gobierno para poder acceder a la asistencia estatal. El objetivo de este trabajo es evaluar dicho sistema e identificar en qué medida los mecanismos de demanda pueden excluir grupos particulares de la población desplazada, a partir de una encuesta de hogares aplicada a 2.322 hogares desplazadas ubicados en 48 municipios y 21 departamentos de Colombia. Para alcanzar dicho objetivo, la investigación analiza en qué medida los sistemas de ayuda basados en mecanismos de demanda pueden excluir grupos particulares de la población objetivo; examina las características de los hogares que influyen sobre la decisión de declarar y la inscripción en el SUR; y, determina la medida en la que la exclusión depende de las decisiones del hogar en la etapa de declaración o de decisiones institucionales en la etapa de registro. Los resultados muestran que la exclusión depende en gran medida de las decisiones del hogar y en menor medida de determinantes institucionales. La decisión de declarar depende en gran parte de la vulnerabilidad de los hogares después del desplazamiento, del estatus económico en el municipio de origen, y del proceso de migración.
