Children and Adolescents, Present and Future CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS, PRESENT AND FUTURE ANNUAL REPORT 2015 PERÚ CHILDREN ARE THE PRESENT AND FUTURE Childhood is the time when we plant seeds with the hope of a good harvest. This is why, for the last 70 years, UNICEF has worked to grow opportunities for children and adolescents in Peru. For us, a country’s development is only possible by raising a generation of children with equal opportunities. ©UNICEF PERÚ/MORENO FOREWORD Since 31 July 2015, the day I started as UNICEF’s Representative in Peru, the commitment of Donors and businesses continued to support UNICEF’s work in Peru. This the Government, civil society and international cooperation to the development of children and is reflected in the 4,085 individual donors who make monthly donations adolescents continues to amaze me. to our programmes and in the partnerships we maintain with businesses from different sectors. My travels to regions where UNICEF works have allowed me to see the challenges Peru faces due to its multiculturalism, geography and history. They have also given me the opportunity to see Through UNICEF’s Procurement Services, the Government acquired strategic supplies to reduce how the Government and communities together can come up with solutions to critical problems. child mortality, reduce anaemia, prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV/AIDS and support pregnancy care. The supplies amount to US$14.2 million. During the long journeys to Amazonian and Andean communities, I gained a better understanding of why, despite remarkable progress, Peru still faces challenges in ending neonatal mortality, 2015 was a fruitful year. At year’s end we were left to build on the achievements made during malnutrition and anaemia in children. the current Country Programme: the creation of a set of regulations that will inform Intercultural Bilingual Education over the next five years; the positioning of early childhood as a critical stage of The stories I heard of indigenous teachers, who as children experienced the confusion of having human development; the studies on the determinants of violence that can inform evidence-based Spanish-speaking teachers, explain the commitment and passion that drive the UNICEF team’s prevention policies for children and adolescents. work alongside the Government to strengthen Intercultural Bilingual Education. We ended the year with the challenge of preparing the way for a new Country Programme to I have been pleasantly surprised to see the creation of UNICEF-supported legislative, policy and support Peru in achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). budgetary frameworks for Peruvian children and adolescents.

The on-going work of civil society and increasing private sector participation in promoting children’s Beyond legal sanction, we all have a role in identifying and addressing the roots of violence and rights also deserve recognition. While we still have a long way to go, there have been significant in challenging its social acceptance. We also need to focus our efforts on the most vulnerable joint efforts to improve social services for children, particularly in Amazonian regions. children. They include those who live in residential care deprived of the basic right to grow up in a family and those exposed to sexual exploitation and child labour. The media are part of daily life for both children and adolescents. UNICEF trained journalists from major TV networks with the aim to improve news coverage of issues related to children. This We take on these challenges with determination and a special commitment to children and training was possible thanks to a partnership with the National Radio and Television Society, the adolescents in Peru. Ombudsperson’s Office and Save the Children.

In this paper, a study is made on the average spatial and temporal behavior of radon gas in soils of deposits; igneous rocks. Lima City. Radon concentration was determined using the LR-115 type 2 track detector during 36 periods, of 14 days each, in twenty holes distributed in the fifteen districts of Lima City. Radon concentration in soil pores ranged from 0.1 to 64.3 kBq/m3 with an average value of 5.6 kBq/m3. The average radon concentration in soil gas was about two times lower in winter than in the other seasons. High radon values during October/November 2017 were related to the earthquakes perceived in Lima City in that period. The highest radon concentrations were found in areas of alluvial deposits whose parental material has been removed from the Quilmaná and Huarangal volcanics by the Chillón and Huaycoloro Rivers. Soil gas radon concentrations were even higher in areas closer to volcanic and less distant from rivers.

    BANCO CENTRAL DE RESERVA DEL PERÚ Regional Dynamics of Income Inequality in Peru Luis Eduardo Castillo* * Banco Central de Reserva del Perú DT. N°. 2020-004 Serie de Documentos de Trabajo Working Paper series Marzo 2020 Los puntos de vista expresados en este documento de trabajo corresponden a los del autor y no reflejan necesariamente la posición del Banco Central de Reserva del Perú. The views expressed in this paper are those of the author and do not reflect necessarily the position of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru Regional Dynamics of Income Inequality in Peru* By Luis Eduardo Castillo This Draft: March 2020 This paper discusses the dynamics of income inequality across regions in Peru between 2007 and 2017. Aiming to ll a gap in the usual inequality diagnosis, the article starts by describing the trends in income inequality for each region, and then focuses on (i) identifying the fraction of aggregate inequality that has been explained by inequality between and within regions, and (ii) quantifying the contributions of demographic and socioeconomic factors to these trends. All measurements are done using data from ENAHO, the National Household Survey of Peru. As regions in Peru are usually understood through political and geographical (longitudinal) categories, I employ both criteria for the purpose of this discussion. The rst nding is that all but two political regions (Loreto and Madre de Dios) and all geographical regions in Peru experienced a reduction in inequality between 2007 and 2017 as measured by the Gini coecient, but the equality gains are highly heterogeneous and seem to have slowed down since 2012.

    Origin of the springs of Costa Verde beach in Lima, Peru Rubén Rojas1, Modesto Montoya1,2, Enoc Mamani1, José Maguiña1, Eduardo Montoya1, Óscar Baltuano1, Patricia Bedregal1, Lucy Coria2, Alcides Guerra3, Santiago Justo3 and Tania Churasacari3 1 Instituto Peruano de Energía Nuclear, Canadá 1470, San Borja, Lima, Perú 2 Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería, Av. Túpac Amaru 210, Lima, Perú 3 Universidad Ricardo Palma, Av. Benavides 5440, Santiago de Surco, Lima, Perú Abstract This paper tries to determine the origin of springs on the Costa Verde beach, located in the district of Barranco, Miraflores and Magdalena province of Lima, Peru. These springs emerge near the shoreline, from the lower layers of an 80-meter high cliff. They have survived the process of urbanization of agricultural land, started in the early 70s, which decreased the water table aquifer of Lima, and wiped the water leaks from the cliffs. To identify the source of the springs, isotopic, physical, chemical and bacteriological analysis was carried out for samples from five springs. The isotopic concentrations in waters from Costa Verde’s springs are depleted compared to those obtained for Lima aquifer waters, which is recharged by infiltration of the Rimac River. The measured values of those concentrations suggest that water from the Costa Verde’s springs should come from a direct recharge in the upper and middle basin, due to infiltration of rainfall or the river at an altitude of about 3600 m. Conductivity and temperature, measured in situ, are similar to those obtained on Lima aquifers. The laboratory analysis showed no significant levels of total or fecal coliform, discarding possible leakage from Lima’s sewerage.
