Eduardo Zegarra shares his thoughts on food insecurity in Peru for a UK project
“The main vacuum in the Peruvian case is that we do not have an official measurement of food insecurity. It is almost impossible to organize policies if you do not have a clear understanding of what is happening and the factors behind the issue. Peru has a long tradition of measuring poverty and other social indicators, so we have the capacity. However, the State is not organized around these kinds of intersectoral problems”.
