Estrategia Nacional de Desarrollo e Inclusión Social

General information

This Strategy is part of the National System of Development and Social Inclusion, a system responsible for ensuring compliance with public policies that guide state intervention aimed at reducing poverty, inequalities, vulnerabilities and social risks.

The MIDIS (Ministry for Development and Social Inclusion) has developed the National Strategy for Development and Social Inclusion "Incluir para Crecer (Include for Growth)" as a management tool which works as the framework document in order to organize interventions being developed by the system’s actors focusing around common Objective and results.

The Strategy draws from a life cycle approach, its aim is to guide the articulation of policy development and social inclusion within the framework of results-based management and the phases and instruments of the management cycle of public policy-planning and programming, implementation, monitoring and evaluation; the aforementioned is based on each sector’s initiatives which are being worked on as well as regional governments’ and local government.

Through the division of these strategic areas, it is possible to deal with different programs corresponding to a specific axis focusing on each of the stages of life; thus this is how "Nutrición Infantil (Child Nutrition)" relates to "Desarrollo Infantil Temprano (Early Childhood Development)" and "Desarrollo de Niñez y Adolescencia (Development of Children and Youth)" with programs such as "Cuna More"; "Qali Warma" and "Juntos (Together)" and axes from "Inclusión Económica (Economic Inclusion)" and "Protección del Adulto Mayor (Protection of the Elderly)" relate to programs such as "FONCODES (Cooperation Fund for Social Development)" and "Pensión 65".
