The proposal addresses the open challenges from the territorialization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the Antofagasta Region, Chile. This project uses a mixed methodology that integrates qualitative, quantitative and georeferenced data, following the FAIR guidelines of open science. The indicators are grouped into 85 key metrics covering employment, human rights, gender, urban planning, pollution, among others. The data, available since 2013, allows an analysis of different territorial scales (communal, regional and national) and facilitates access to public information through the SIT Antofagasta platform. This is the first subnational monitoring in Chile that combines innovative and collaborative methods to address the challenges of the 2030 Agenda. Preliminary results highlight important socioeconomic and environmental inequalities, such as increased poverty and food insecurity, as well as challenges in higher education and informal housing. The gender perspective also reveals challenges in health and violence, disproportionately impacting women. The aim is to contribute to the generation of informed public policies for the well-being of mining regions, and this proposal seeks to deepen multivariate analysis methods and scientific dissemination of the data.
