Grupo Parlamentario “Ecuador sin Hambre” evaluó la aplicación de la Ley Orgánica de Alimentación Escolar

The evaluation of Ecuador’s School Feeding Law highlights critical gaps in inter-institutional coordination among the education, social inclusion, and health sectors. Although statistical agencies make census data publicly available to support policy formulation, effective implementation remains hindered by fragmented governance. Lawmakers emphasized that while nutritional requirements are only partially met, the lack of coordination among ministries undermines efforts to combat childhood malnutrition. The absence of a unified strategy raises concerns about the actual impact of public spending and the effectiveness of current social interventions. This discussion is crucial for open data advocacy, as it underscores the need for transparent and accessible datasets to monitor policy compliance. Reliable, publicly available statistics enable citizens and legislators to hold institutions accountable, ensuring that resource allocation directly translates into tangible improvements in public health and educational welfare.
