Argentina 2026

अर्जेंटीना

Argentina (República Argentina) enters 2027 with 46.2 million residents, an ageing index that rose from 40 to 53 people aged 65 or over per 100 children in twelve years, and a poverty rate that INDEC put at 32.3% of people in the first half of 2026, up from 28.2% in the second half of 2025. Its risks come from water and from fuel.

01 · Readings

Argentina in six readings.

Six readings that frame the Argentina baseline, and the eight questions this edition answers, each with its status and source.

  • 46.2millionpopulation, 2022 [1]
  • 53per 100people aged 65+ per 100 aged 0–14, 2022 [2]
  • 400.9MtCO₂einventory total incl. land use, 2022 [4]
  • 42%low-carbon share of electricity, 2025 [8]
  • 10.4%land protected, 2025 [21]
  • 32.3%people below the poverty line, H1 2026 [3]

02 · Sectors

Six sectors, one hexagon.

Water first, then Energy, Infrastructure, Food, Health and Biodiversity. Each count is the findings of this edition in that sector: coverage of the evidence, never a score. Infrastructure is not assessed: the edition holds no Infrastructure finding and its coupling matrix does not assess it.

Outside the six sectors: Climate forcing 4, Finance 1, Systemic 1.

03 · Hazard exposure

The hazards this edition reads.

The edition’s own risk objects, in its order, each read across driver, exposure, vulnerability, capacity, cascade and horizon. The hexagon marks the sectors the cascade reaches; the domain beside each is an editorial reading of its hazard words.

Scenario · SCN-ARG-DRT-01

Multi-year drought with low Paraná flows

Under this scenario, results describe a conditional season under stated assumptions. It is not a forecast, and no intervention described here has been carried out.

04 · Couplings

How the sectors carry risk into each other.

The Argentina matrix types the twenty couplings between the five core प्रणालियाँ. Strengths are Nexus estimates from the cited evidence and analogue events; they set the starting graph that the Q1 2027 Foundry cut will test.

CLI-008अर्जेंटीनाCLI Climate forcing रिपोर्ट किया गयाFires affected 723,765 hectares in 2022, more than twice the 2021 area, and satellite analysis put the Corrientes burn at about 1.04 million hectares.
HLT-009अर्जेंटीनाHLT स्वास्थ्य रिपोर्ट किया गयाThe 2025–26 dengue season closed with about 70 confirmed cases against 27,178 suspected, while chikungunya reached 3,730 confirmed or probable cases, mostly in the north-west.
