| Sumario: | This study analyzes the social progress of countries that have signed peace agreements in non-international armed conflicts in the following dimensions: fundamental needs, well-being, and opportunities, applied to the deployment of human potential by participating in community actions, associating, and deciding freely. From an exploratory approach, a descriptive quantitative analysis was performed on the scores and evolution of the Social Progress Index in 90 countries from 2011 to 2022. Findings showed that the progress of 43.7% of the countries was above the average population score of 57.18 and below this 56.3%, positioning Australia and Canada at a very high level and 15 African countries at a very low level. The dimension of fundamental needs obtained the highest average score of 65.39 while the lowest was for the dimension of opportunities at 50.78. In terms of the evolution of progress, 8.05% of countries experienced a decline in their Index, while 91.95% showed improvement. Notably, 88.9% of African countries and 91.3% of Asian countries displayed positive advancements. Social progress does not follow the same direction as social evolution. The study does not make relative comparisons with different populations.
