Infonavit (Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores) is the largest provider of mortgages in the country of Mexico, assisting lower-income families that cannot obtain financing from a private institution with acquisition and other housing solutions.

To advance this mission, the organization wants to understand the relationship between policy, social influences, and dwelling abandonment. Our project is building upon preliminary research done by the institution, census and home surveys, loans, and social research to discover the factors that most elevate the risk of housing abandonment. DSSG will incorporate these findings into tools and evidence-based recommendations, helping Infonavit offer services and support local policy to mitigate abandonment and improve economic outcomes for the citizens of Mexico.
