| description | Most governments of the departments of Colombia have been announcing significant decreases in poverty in recent years as a success resulted from their own actions. However, the perception of Colombians disagrees with these opinions. Therefore, it is important to establish complementary measures that take into account the perception of those who consider themselves to be in poverty, with the purpose of creating more accurate publicpolicies to mitigate and overcome the negative consequences of poverty. This paper shows an estimate of the Subjective Poverty Line using three methods for Tunja in 2015, which indicates that DANE (Office of NationalStatistics of Colombia) has underestimated the poverty line in the city by at least 30%. |

However, the perception of Colombians disagrees with these opinions. Therefore, it is important to establish complementary measures that take into account the perception of those who consider themselves to be in poverty, with the purpose of creating more accurate publicpolicies to mitigate and overcome the negative consequences of poverty. This paper shows an estimate of the Subjective Poverty Line using three methods for Tunja in 2015, which indicates that DANE (Office of NationalStatistics of Colombia) has underestimated the poverty line in the city by at least 30%. La mayoría de los gobiernos del territorio nacional vienen anunciando, en los últimos años, descensos significativos de la pobreza como un éxito derivado de sus propios actos. Sin embargo, la percepción de los colombianos no concuerda con dichos descensos. Por ello, es pertinente establecer medidas complementarias, que tengan en cuenta la percepción de quienes se consideran pobres, con el propósito de erigir políticas públicas más certeras para mitigar y superar las consecuencias negativas de la pobreza. Este documento muestra una estimación de la línea de pobreza subjetiva, a partir de tres métodos, para la ciudad de Tunja en 2015, que permite evidenciar que el DANE subestimó la pobreza de la ciudad al menos en un 30 %.
