| description | Poverty reduction has been a subject widely discussed and analyzed by different academic disciplines, however, so far has not found a magic formula to mitigate this problem. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the contribution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) to the eradication of poverty in developing countries. The main result of this work is that technological change is an important factor for the reduction of poverty and inequality in the Latin American region. For ICTs to increase the total factor productivity of each country, policies are needed to improve the quality of education, protection of property rights and access to ICTs for households and for public and private enterprises. |

La reducción de la pobreza ha sido un tema extensamente discutido y analizado por diferentes disciplinas académicas, sin embargo, hasta ahora no se ha encontrado una fórmula mágica para mitigar esta problemática. El objetivo principal de este trabajo es analizar la contribución de las Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TIC) a la erradicación de la pobreza en los países en desarrollo. El principal resultado de este trabajo es que el cambio tecnológico es un factor importante para la reducción de la pobreza y la desigualdad en la región latinoamericana. Para que las TIC incrementen la productividad total de los factores de cada país son necesarias políticas que mejoren la calidad de la educación, la protección de los derechos de propiedad y el acceso a las TIC de los hogares y empresas públicas y privadas.
