Benjamín Reif and Antonio Suárez ABSTRACT This paper describes a study done in Venezuela in order to facilitate the decision-making process relating to spatially focused poverty reduction policies and programs. Maximization of benefits for poor people is one of the challenges faced by poverty reduction policies and programs. Such maximization must be based on policy implementation within the context of the places where poor people live. Focusing consists mainly of two dimensions: the vertical dimension and the horizontal or spatial one. Vertical dimension refers to the identification of target-groups as candidates for being the object of poverty reduction policies. On the other hand, spatial dimension relates to the identification of places or sites where poverty reduction policy implementation is necessary. Because of scarcity of resources for policy implementation, criteria for prioritisation must be applied. Similarly, the identification of priority groups within the sector of a particular policy and the selection of priority geographical areas must be addressed. Methods and tools for this purpose are needed to help planners to assess problems and issues and to convey knowledge to support strategic decision-making. On the other hand, a stable institutional mechanism is required for allowing formulation, pursuit and the evaluation of projects according to the policy. This study was developed for Venezuelan National Housing Council to help identify municipalities, where policy benefits should receive priority within target groups. The priority should be based on its multiplier effects, mainly its economic potential. The economic potential of a spatial unit is defined as the capacity to generate jobs when the conditions that directly affect the production of goods and services in this spatial unit are improved. At the same time, areas within each municipality should be identified for large-scale land developments. Environmental and risks issues, accessibility and other relevant factors were considered in the selection of potential sites. The methodology used to estimate the Economic Potential consisted in classifying and grouping the spatial units by using multiple regression techniques on significant variables such as infrastructure, human resources and market potential. This process was performed at a municipal level, covering the whole national territory composed, at the time when the study was completed, by 286 municipalities. On the other hand, the methodology used to identify areas within each municipality for large-scale land developments was based on the overlapping of geographical data. Among the variables employed are agricultural land potential, present land use, geomorphology, vegetation, ecological fragility, risk issues and accessibility. The combination of the economic potential of a municipality and the environmental analysis of its territory lead to the location of new integrated housing compounds, with better perspectives of sustainable social and economic development for their inhabitants.

INTRODUCTION The battle against poverty demands, in first place, the promotion of employment and productive investment, in such a way that the population would be capable of generating income and thus have a better quality of life. Creating employment and generating wealth must be accompanied by a framework that would guarantee a style of life worthy of the population. This would require giving the families housing with the primary services (water, electricity, etc.) and access to health, education and recreation, among other services. It also implies the development of new integrated housing compounds, which in some cases, are necessary to develop along with new economic activities, away from traditional cities. The National Housing Council (El Consejo Nacional de la Vivienda – CONAVI - in Spanish), the Venezuelan public agency in charge of housing and habitat policies in the country, identified this need several years ago. What is presented in this paper is one of the solutions formulated to attend to these requirements. It is a methodological process, which responds to the query as to where future integrated housing developments should be placed. This process follows two paths: on one hand, places where there exists economic potential to be developed must be considered while on the other, the places chosen must be capable of bearing with, from the environmental perspective, the development of human activities. In this way, economic development in a sustainable manner would be promoted. This paper describes the methodology designed for CONAVI, in its two main components. 1 2.- ECONOMIC POTENTIAL Economic potential is defined as the capacity that a spatial unit has to generate employment, when the conditions that directly affect the production of goods and offering of services in this unit improve. These conditions refer to two dimensions. On one hand, the Supply conditions that are related to all those factors that directly or indirectly affect the cost structure of a determined activity. This means that the production units will have the tendency to locate in places in which the expected costs will be lower. The main conditioning factors that could affect costs are the presence of developed infrastructure and the availability of skilled labour. On the other hand, the Demand conditions are those market characteristics that stimulate economic activity, through an expected increase in the benefits that the activity can generate. The factor of demand considered is the existence of population strata with its request for goods and/or services. The methodology used to estimate economic potential was based on classifying and grouping together the spatial units and applying multiple regressions referring to significant variables to each group. The unit of analysis consisted in municipalities, which are the smallest territorial entities. They are equivalent to Counties in Anglo-Saxon countries. As has been aforementioned, the variable used as a proxy for economic activity is the level of employment registered in a particular municipality. This choice is justified because is the only economic information available at municipal level. Likewise, the temporary variation of employment could not be used, due to the unavailability of this information at this level. 2 This study is based on the premise that the economic activity of a given zone is determined by the availability of a number of factors. The following have been considered in this study: • Infrastructure • Human resources • Potential of the local market The Infrastructure factor refers to the existence of installations and services offered by the municipality, such as roads, health and education, among others. It is assumed that by improving the infrastructure and services, the level of economic activity within a particular municipality would rise. This factor was measured through the percentage of the population who have access to infrastructure and road services, health, education, primary services and communications, among others. The Human Resources factor is defined as the quantity and quality of personnel available in a specific location. It is assumed that on improving this component, the level of economic activity which can take place in a specific municipality would rise. As a proxy for this factor, the percentage of population in each level of education was used, from the illiterate to the population with college education. The Potential of Local Market factor refers to the potential demand for goods and services by the residents of the municipality. It is assumed that on improving this component, the level of economic activity of a chosen municipality could rise. This 3 factor is estimated based on the existing level of poverty, measured through the index of unsatisfied basic needs. 2.1 Methodology This study is based on a multivariable analysis of the aspects related to the economic potential. This analysis was conducted in three phases: • Factor estimation • Group construction • Estimation of Economic Potential 2.1.1 Factor Estimation The objective of this phase was the analysis of the statistical information available, consequently leading to the derivation of the factors associated with the level of economic activity of a municipality. The factorial analysis technique was used, which consisted in identifying variables or factors which explained the configuration of correlations/covariances of a set of variables observed. The method of factorial extraction was factorisation through the main axis, which consists in obtaining a common punctuation which, on being multiplied by a simulated factorial coefficient, would reproduce the original data with a tolerance factor of 1% above or below the original value. The number of iterations required varied between 6 and 10 in the majority of the cases. An attempt to identify three factors related to those factors theoretically identified, was made: 4 • Infrastructure • Human resources/personnel • Potential of the local market In the case of the “infrastructure”, a double factorization was made. Firstly, components through factorial analysis applied to simple variables were estimated, with a total of five components being used (see Table 1). Secondly, the components to estimate the infrastructure factor were factorized. On the remaining factors, the calculations were made based on simple variables. In Table 1 and Table 3, the communalities and factor coefficients for each one of the factors related to the potential of economic development are presented. Table 1 a.- Infrastructure Factor Components Communality Factor Coefficient Transport Component Population (%) with access to: Paved roads Unpaved roads Sea/River ports Airports Educational Services Component Population (%) with access to: Maternal education sites Primary education sites Secondary education sites Universities/Technical schools Health Services Component Population (%) with access to: Rural primary health services Urban primary health services Hospitals Basic Services Component Population (%) with access to: Water supply services Sewerage services Electricity services Telecomunications Component Population (%) with access to: Mail and telegraph services Telephone services 0,9420 0,9620 0,8320 0,7900 1,0000 0,2920 0,2677 0,1450 0,2953 0,8744 0,8864 0,8998 0,8993 1,0000 0,2456 0,2490 0,2528 0,2526 0,9534 0,8914 0,9540 1,0000 0,2678 0,2504 0,4818 0,8632 0,8579 0,8389 1,0000 0,3372 0,3351 0,3277 0,7569 0,8031 1,0000 0,4852 0,5148 5 b.- Infrastructure Factor Communalities Factor Coefficients Education Health Basic Telecom Transport Services Services Services Services 0,9690 0,9767 0,9678 0,9786 0,9585 0,1706 0,2087 0,2068 0,2091 0,2048 1,0000 As can be observed, the level of the communalities vary between 0,76 and 0,99, the majority being over 0,80, which indicates that the factors extracted acceptably reflect the variations of the variables on which they were estimated. On the other hand, the factorial coefficients, on adding up the unit, indicate the contribution that each variable gives to the variation of its factor. For example, in Table 1, it can be observed that within the infrastructure factor, the presence of Educational Services (the factorial coefficient of which is 0,2087), contributes more to the variation of the factor than the component Transport (0,1706).

M.E., Statistical Departments / Educational Statistical System, 1997 FIDES, Investments need map, 1998 The estimated factors, in this way, are expressed in a graded scale. The grading of a factor is equal to the original variable multiplied by its factorial coefficient. In this case, the factorial value takes the form of a weighted sum of variables, the weights 6 being the coefficients of the factors. These weights express the presence and importance of each of the variables that was their basis, that is, represents a measurement of the contribution level of each factor. Thus, each one has its corresponding measure. For example, for “personnel” , in a municipality where only primary and secondary school education exist, and in which 90% of the population has obtained only primary school education and 10%, secondary school, their weight in the factor would be 25,8. This is the result of 90 x 0,26 (the factorial coefficient of primary school education) plus 10 x 0,24 (coefficient of secondary school education). 2.1.2 Building Groups The objective of this stage was to obtain groups from municipalities’ characteristics, as there were reflected in factors. Groups were built in accordance with similarity in the three factors showed earlier. Cluster analysis was the technique used; the aim was the maximization of the variation inter-groups compared with intra-groups one. This technique was applied and three groups of municipalities were identified: group A is the lowest in all factors scale. It is characterised by low infrastructure and human resources levels, and has great poverty problems, so Local Market Potential is limited. On the other hand, group C is the opposite of the A one; factors scale levels are high in all factors. Group B is intermediate. Since there are very many municipalities in this group (and a huge variety of them), it has been divided in three subgroups according to factors scale progression. It is to notice that the 7 density of municipalities is different in each group; for the low level of the scale, municipalities are more homogeneous than in the high ones. In a similar way, it is relevant to point out this categorization is adequate with other social indicators. For example, group A municipalities have less than 18.000 residents, and an urbanization value of around 50%. For C group municipality’s urbanisation reach 95%. This classification was verified statistically with discriminant analysis and was establish that the groups are statistically stable. The distribution of municipalities was contrasted with economic activity, expressed by employment. Cluster analysis was carried out, including employment as an additional variable. The results confirmed the previous classification. From this result, it can be inferred the existence of a relationship between economic activity and the factors considered. 2.1.3 Estimating Economic Potential The objective of the last stage was to estimate the economic potential for each municipality group. This was made it in two steps. Firstly, it was took into consideration the existence of a relationship between factor endowment and economic activity (measured by employment) for all municipalities. This analysis was done to build a framework for estimating the economic potential in each municipal group. For this analysis, all the 286 municipalities were taken. The multiple regression method by ordinary least squares was used. 8 Table 4 Relationship between factors and economic activity Constant 8.138,94 t Infrastructure 0,2946 29,54 Factors Human Local Mark resources potential 0,2888 1,7215 25,36 58,36 R2 0,9377 On table 4 it can be seen that the determination coefficient is high, and the variable coefficients are positive, implying that a proportional relationship between factor endowment and economic activity (measured by employment) exists. An increase in municipality factors endowments may cause an increase in its employment. It should be recall that regression coefficients only means association among variables. Nevertheless, they can be interpreted as variations in the economic activity due to variations in the associate factors. Therefore, an increase of one point in the scale of local market potential, is associated to an increase of almost two (1,7215) jobs, while the infrastructure index increase, needed to generate one job, is almost four points (see Table 4). The second step consisted on estimating the economic potential, defined as the growth of the economic activity, as a consequence of a unitary increase in the factor endowment, for each municipal category. There were carried out regressions between factors and economic activity, expressed as employment. This technique was applied for each municipal group. The variations of economic activity due to a unitary variation of the localization factors are presented in table 5. Table 5 Economic Potential per municipality group Coefficient 2 R N Group A 1,5046 0,9207 73 B1 2,3396 0,9506 125 Group B B2 4,9539 0,9854 51 B3 5,6515 0,9543 17 Group C 1,8836 0,9302 20 Total 2,3048 0,9377 286 9 These coefficients can be interpreted as the expected variations in economic activity due to a unitary variation in the factor endowment, and they constitute the economic potential of a municipal category. For example, suppose that in a municipality belonging to group A, investments are carried out in infrastructure; educational programs are executed, that resulted in an elevation of the population's educational level; plus poverty reduction programs are carried out successfully. Let us suppose that these actions imply that the index localization factors increases one point, then, 1.5 jobs are expected to be created in such municipality. If the municipality belongs to another group, its potential will be different, because the variation of employment due to variation of the localisation factors is higher. The high correlation among factors, coincidences in scale factors in each group, and the homogeneity in the relationships between employment and factors inside each group, lead us to consider the building of an index or location endowment vector to reflect, in a single axis, the characteristics identified by factors. Consequently, this index could be related with employment, in a way that could bring a graphic idea of the relationship between both variables. As a measure of the factors, this index consisted in a scale. For building it, normalization of factors scale was required. It was decided that the scale will run from 0 to 100.000. Subsequently, for each factor it was calculated the distance between each point and the maximum of its scale, and moved this distance to the scale from 0 to 100.000. Then each scale was added in the single index assuming a weight similar to each one. In practice, this process was similar to the calculation of a sum of all 10 factor scales. This way, a unique scale of factor endowment was obtained, which varied from 0 to 100.000. Cluster analysis was applied to this index. The classification obtained was similar to the one previously found. Due to this result, it is possible to see (in a graphic way) the relationship between the location factor endowment vector and economic activity. It was found that the classification coincided with the changes of slope of the economic activity curve. In table 6 and figure 1, the results of this analysis are shown. Table 6 Municipalities per group in factor endowment index Group A B1 B2 B3 C Total Factor endowment Índex Less than 5.576 From 5.577 to 16.984 From 16.985 to 42.921 From 42.922 to 66.740 More than 66.741 73 125 51 17 20 286 Figure 1: Economic Potential 11 This graphic representation allows seeing in a simple way, the relationship among a group of 22 variables, represented by the location factor endowment index, and its relationship with employment. 2.2 Limitations The presented methodology is a first approach to measure economic potential concept. This methodology can be improved with future research. The results of the one we have shown has three limitations; data sources, spatial units, and data temporary reference. First at all, the analysis is based on available statistical information. The research was based on statistics collected by the Central Office of Statistic (O.C.E.I.), statistical divisions of Education and Health ministries, as well as other national and regional public agencies. That means this research was limited to variables relevant by these agencies. For future research, it is expected that statistical sources will be upgraded, validated and enlarged, and the study of other variables and factors will be possible throughout the consultation with other agencies. Secondly, all municipalities with information for the oldest source were considered; in this case, the 1990 National Census. In other words, the results took in consideration all existent municipalities according to the 1992 Territorial Division; 286 municipalities, then covering all Venezuelan territory. Today there are 335 municipalities. 12 Finally, this research worked with the information of the last available year, in practical terms, it worked in a period of seven year-old time (1990-1997), because not all the sources collected information with the same accuracy for one only year. This constitutes an evident limitation for the results obtained (due to 1990 data was compared with another of 1997). To face this problem, proportional adjusting techniques were applied in order to homogenize variables; in this way comparison was possible. Thus, the analysis showed is transversal, that is to say, the municipal structure is analyzed for a point in time. 3. IDENTIFICATION OF SITES The second stage of this research consisted on the identification of sites for largescale land development. The analysis of these variables necessarily implies consideration of physical and geographical factors. For the study of these factors, an analysis of cartographic material was carried out. The cartographic analysis demands all variables should be susceptible of map representation. The objective is to compare the spatial distribution of a group of variables, in a way that a comprehensive approach of a problem can be extracted. The usual technique consists on overlapping a set of thematic maps. The method is eminently qualitative; variable synthesis is measured in ordinal scales. For example environmental sensibility is obtained from the overlapping of vegetation map, wild life maps and geomorphology map. The spatial distribution of environmental sensibility levels is obtained, which indicate the places in which certain activities can be carried out without causing a significant impact on the natural environment. 13 In this case, the objective was to identify places where to establish human settlements associated to economic investment projects, assuring environmental sustainability. This task had to take into account physical and geographical factors. For incorporating these factors, three steps were followed: 3.1 • Estimating environmental sensibility • Incorporation of other variables • Obtaining synthesis map Estimating Environmental Sensibility The objective of this step is the generation of a map that reflects the environmental sensibility to human activities. The environmental sensibility was conceived as the combination of three components. First, geomorphology defined as the landscape unit that prevails in an area. Second, the vegetation of the area, which includes its associated wild life. Finally, the legal protection figures (if any) of the area. In this component, the categories established by Venezuelan legislation were taking into account. These areas are denominated Special Administrative Regime Areas (Areas Bajo Régimen de Administración Espacial or ABRAE). The components had a set of categories that were evaluated by an expert panel. They established four levels of sensibility (Very High, High, Medium, and Low), and a scale to measure the sensibility level. Experts were invited to assign values to each category in all the components. Then, in several Delphi rounds, the definitive scale was obtained for each component. Results are shown in table 7. 14 Table 7 Environmental Sensibility Scale a.- Component: Geomorphology Landscape Unit Sensibility level Value Very High 8 High 6 Medium 4 Low 2 Sensibility level Value Very High 8 High 6 Medium 4 Low 2 Paramo High mountains Deltaic plain Swamp Coastal marshy plain Low mountains Gallery Foot hills Denudation plain Maracaibo lake south plains Dissected mesa Non-dissected mesa Peneplain Isolated hills Hills systems Valley Thectonic depresion Coastal zone Flood plain Sandy plain Alluvial fan Denudation forms b.- Component: Vegetation and wild life Vegetation type Paramo Manglar Forest Gallery forest Brushwood Xerophyte plants Forest plantation Savanna c.- Component: Special Administrative Regime Areas Legal Figure Sensibility level Value National park Natural monument Very High 8 Wild life refuge Wild life reserve High 6 Protective zone Forest reserve Forest area under protection Medium 4 Note: low environmental sensibility level does not correspond to any legal figure 15 For obtaining an environmental sensibility measure, two complementary methods were applied. First of all, an index of all the components was calculated. It was necessary to weight each component. Multiple tests with different combinations were carried out. These tests consisted on consultations to an experts’ panel and Delphi rounds. The adopted weights are shown in table 8 and the values are shown in table 9. Table 8 Weights for environmental components Components Weight (%) Geomorphology 40 Vegetation and Wild life 20 ABRAE 40 Table 9 Values of environmental sensibility levels Sensibility Level Values Very High From 6,01 to 8,00 High From 4,01 to 6,00 Medium From 2,01 to 4,00 Low Less than 2,00 Secondly, a composition map was made. In other words, each component was represented in a map. This map showed different areas classified according to the component categories. Sensibility regions were obtained for each component, so three maps were obtained: sensibility for geomorphology, sensibility for vegetation and sensibility for ABRAE. These three maps were overlapped in order to produce one of global sensibility. The results can be observed in figure 2. It is necessary to point out this procedure complemented the first one; so each identified area was 16 associated to a numeric value. This value expresses the level of sensibility of such area.

Three additional variables were considered: Environmental cost refers to resources required to improve certain geographical conditions. The geographical conditions took into account flooding and accessibility. The flooding is the severity of floods phenomena. Accessibility refers to the presence or infrastructure that allows reaching an area. Both variables were 17 measured by ordinal categories. The categories of flooding were: severe, partial (or seasonal) and absent. For accessibility were high, medium, and low. The combination of these two variables produces the Environmental Cost scale; an ordinal scale. An unfavorable combination of components corresponds to a high costs, while favorable conditions correspond to low ones. For instance, an area with severe flooding and low accessibility has high environmental cost, due to the high investments needed to correct these conditions. On the contrary, an area with absent flooding and high accessibility has a low cost. The combination was carried cartographically, so a map of regions according to its environmental costs was obtained. Economic potential, this variable is the cartographic representation of the economic potential calculated earlier in this research. The map obtained points out regions where to develop clearly identified economic projects within a positive economic environment. The economic projects are exogenous proposed. This distribution can be observed in the figure 3. 18 Figure 3: Economic Potential Appropriate conditions for other economic activities. Finally, the presence of other potentialities, such as Oil and Forest ones, were taken into account. The existence of current activities and/or projects associated with other activities was also considered. These variables were represented in a map, and can be observed in the figure 4. 19 Figure 4: Oil and Forest Activities -72 -7 0 -6 8 -66 -6 4 -6 2 -6 0 CURAÇAO BONAIRE # 12 ElVí n c u lo 12 F ALCON Pue· blo Nu evo #

The synthesis map is the combination of those ones. On this map, it is possible to define areas where large scale and sustainable developed land projects are feasible. In such areas new integrated housing complex could be built. In other words, the final product of this Project, a list of recommended areas for large-scale developed land projects, is expressed in a map, so it is possible to see their geographical location and the interrelations with the existing towns and cities. In figure 5, a fragment of the synthesis map is shown. These areas are characterised by Low or Medium level of Environmental 20 Sensibility, Low Environmental Costs, High or Medium level of Economic Potential, and favourable conditions for other economic activities. Figure 5: Recommended areas for large-scale land developments 4. CONCLUSIONS This methodology has the advantage of incorporating the whole complexity of the phenomenon, allowing the user to know the reasons why an area is selected. Additionally, he can modify the selection criteria, obtaining multiple lists of developing areas. The combination of the economic potential of a municipality and the environmental analysis of its territory lead to the location of new integrated housing complex, with better perspectives of sustainable social and economic development for their inhabitants. 21
