Piura entre las regiones con menor violencia escolar, según encuesta nacional ENARES 2024 - El Tiempo

Piura has emerged as a regional leader in educational safety, recording some of the lowest rates of school violence in Peru according to the 2024 National Survey of Social Relations. This notable achievement highlights a positive shift in local social dynamics, setting the region apart from areas with much higher prevalence of aggression. The data suggest that effective community engagement and local policies may have successfully mitigated psychological, physical, and sexual bullying among students. Nationally, the survey reveals a tangible reduction in school violence over the past decade for both children and adolescents. Despite this encouraging downward trend, nearly half of all students still report experiencing mistreatment from peers. The persistence of such high figures, despite improvements, underscores that while progress has been made, the issue remains a critical public health concern requiring sustained attention and robust prevention strategies. This report is vital for the open data community, as it demonstrates the power of transparent, large-scale public surveys in driving accountability and policy reform. By making granular regional and demographic data publicly available, the Ministry of Women and Vulnerable Populations (MIMP) and the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI) enable researchers and civil society to identify vulnerabilities and evaluate the impact of interventions. This transparency fosters evidence-based decision-making, allowing stakeholders to target resources effectively and advocate for safer, more equitable educational environments based on rigorous empirical evidence rather than anecdotal claims.
