  • Innova Schools in Peru: the Economic and Social Context, Privatization, and the Educational Context in Peru
    Directorate for Education and Skills Innovative Learning Environments (ILE) System Note PERU Innova Schools- Colegios Peruanos 1. Aims Innova Schools (IS) has under its vision to offer quality education at a reasonable cost to the children in Peru. The targeted children are those that pertain to lower B, and C, SES. Our aim is to offer an alternative that is excellent, scalable and affordable, in order to narrow the gap regarding the problem of quality education in Peru. As a private educational system, we are resolved to overcome the learning gap, with initiatives and interventions that have innovation at the core. IS is implementing a paradigm shift: from teacher centred schools, to schools that are student centred. In this paradigm shift, technology is regarded as an important tool in the learning process. Our learning process promotes that students use technology to learn efficiently, and that teachers facilitate this process accordingly. To perform its vision, IS started as a full-fledged company in 2010 with a carefully designed business plan including the construction of a nationwide network of 70 schools that will serve over 70,000 students by 2020. Up to the moment, we have 18 schools, 16 in the peripheral areas of the capital city of Lima, and 2 in the provinces. IS is currently attending a population of approximately 620 teachers, and 9 100 students. 2. Leadership and Partners At the educational system level, Jorge Yzusqui our CEO is a member of the National Council of Education [Consejo Nacional de Eduación-CNE]. There is also a close connection between our CEO and Martín Vegas who is the vice-minister of pedagogic management at the Ministry of Education in Peru.

    THE NATURE OF COLONIAL BODIES: PUBLIC HEALTH IN LIMA, PERU, 1535- 1635 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Kathleen M. Kole de Peralta Karen Graubart, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana July 2015 © Copyright 2015 Kathleen M. Kole de Peralta THE NATURE OF COLONIAL BODIES: PUBLIC HEALTH IN LIMA, PERU, 1535- 1640 Abstract by Kathleen M. Kole de Peralta In 1535, Francisco Pizarro founded Lima, Peru in the middle of a coastal dessert. Its residents transformed the landscape to build a colonial capital and in the process, the landscape shaped local understandings of race, gender, social status and power. Lima’s urban environment created a public health discourse that focused on the relationship between the natural world and human welfare. These discussions emerged in response to the rapid rate of Lima’s growth and the challenges it faced, including deforestation, food supply challenges, and the concentration of waste, disease, and illness. I argue that Lima’s cabildo [municipal government], comprised of just a fraction of the population, seized on these adversities to empower themselves over the majority of the population, promote their interests, and negotiate interactions between humans and their environs. Using the discourse of colonial bodies, health, and the natural world, town councilmen endeavored to control a racially and socially diverse population that surpassed 25,000 people by 1614.
