A survey conducted between October and December 2011 found that the births of 1.6% of children under 17 (168,000) were not registered. The survey was conducted by the Catholic University Social Debt Observatory and the Instituto abierto para el desarrollo y estudio de políticas públicas (Iadepp), a group dedicated to the analysis of public policies.
