Practice submitted to ORU Fogar’s IV Regional Best Practice Award by Regional Community of the Andes (Peru), with input record number 13 and a total score of 585 points.
The period in which the formulation of the SuperA Peru Project was proposed in the country showed a low and heterogeneous level of productivity, high levels of informality; business and labour, high income inequality, low level of technological innovation, among other aspects. These conditions were more critical in the rural area (Andean), where to date populations in poverty are settled, with large social gaps in malnutrition, health services, education, water and sanitation. These populations are involved in a subsistence economy. It is estimated that at the national level more than 7 million rural inhabitants continue to be poor, and among them, is the segment of rural quinoa producers.
The general objective is to contribute to sustainable development and poverty reduction in the Commonwealth of the Andes. In addition, we want to obtain a concerted and sustainable economic development strengthened for the quinoa value chains.
