The earthquake affected the southwestern part of Lima, on the west coast, along a stretch 186 kilometers long and 70 kilometers wide, covering an area of approximately 13,000 square kilometers. The regions hardest hit were Ica (provinces of Pisco, Ica, and Chincha), Lima (provinces of Cañete and Yauyos) and Huancavelica (provinces of Huaytará and Castrovirreyna). The earthquake resulted in 540 deaths, some 4,200 injuries, 52,000 victims and close to 200,000 persons affected. Approximately 53,000 homes were destroyed and around 22,000 homes were affected, as well as schools, hospitals and health centers. Likewise, 20 kilometers of irrigation canals were destroyed (11 kilometers in Castrovirreyna and 9 in Huaytará), and approximately 44 kilometers of canals were affected. In the days after the disaster, ACT Forum members PREDES, DIACONIA and LWR assessed the damage in areas they are operating in. A RRF was issued to support the population in the provinces of Chincha, Huaytará and Castrovirreyna. PREDES and DIACONIA provided emergency shelters, water deposits and sanitation. They distributed training materials related to hygiene, construction of earthquake resistant housing and assistance to children to cope with disasters. The members also provided psycho-social and community support to the communities. LWR distributed food kits to families and provided psychosocial care to children and trainings to strengthen the coping capacity of the affected families. The Church of Sweden supported the implementing members through a team providing training on an Community Based Psycho-social Approach, which is considered very appropriate in these circumstances. Unforeseen difficulties with coordination have unfortunately delayed the process of launching this appeal. But the assessment by the ACT members in Peru shows that there is still a considerable need to implement the activities as proposed. ACT is a global alliance of churches and related agencies working to save lives and support communities in emergencies worldwide. The ACT Coordinating Office is based with the World Council of Churches (WCC) and The Lutheran World Federation (LWF) in Switzerland. ACT appeal LAPE71 2 Assistance to Peru earthquake victims LWR is planning to assist 900 families in the districts of Arma, Aurahuá, and Chupamarca in the province of Castrovirreyna, with activities to restore health and living condition, in particular by building temporary shelters for 200 families, rebuilding 3,000 meters irrigation canals and installing 3 irrigation systems. LWR will assist 30 local promoters (both men and women) in post-trauma treatment and provide professional accompaniment to 550 families. DIACONÍA proposes assistance in the districts of Huangascar, Viñac and Madeán providing (i) construction of 200 multipurpose shelters for families and strengthen the capacity of 400 households to build improved safe and healthy houses; (ii) restoration of 3,500 meters of irrigation canals; (iii) support to 1,500 people in the recovery from post-traumatic stress. PDA, together with its local implementing partner Manos Unidas contra la Pobreza, plans to assist 150 families in the community of San Benito, Chincha, with provision and maintenance of a water supply system and the installation of an alternative drainage system. PREDES plans to intervene together with its implementing member KAIROS in the provinces of Chincha and Pisco. They will build some 70 modules of safe and healthy quincha (local construction material) homes and assist the population with construction and maintenance of 420 other modules; they will provide mental health support to 150 families through trained promoters; and provide training to 20 promoters for psycho social care and carry out a diagnosis of some 500 affected people; they will also provide capacity training in management, planning and political advocacy for district and local authorities, communities and 30 volunteers.

The earthquake affected the southwestern part of Lima, on the west coast, along a stretch of 186 kilometers long and 70 kilometers wide, covering an area of approximately 13,000 square kilometers. The hardest hit regions were Ica (provinces of Pisco, Ica, and Chincha), Lima (provinces of Cañete and Yauyos) and Huancavelica (provinces of Huaytará and Castrovirreyna). Approximately 53,000 homes were destroyed and around 22,000 homes were affected, as well as schools, hospitals and health centers. Likewise, 20 kilometers of irrigation canals were destroyed (11 kilometers in Castrovirreyna and 9 in Huaytará), and approximately 44 kilometers of canals were affected. 33 educational centers are reported to have collapsed. During the days following the earthquake, the main roads were cut off, blocking traffic and slowing the arrival of humanitarian aid and the evacuation of those wounded and generating both panic and fear. The earthquake resulted in 540 deaths, some 4,200 injuries, 52,000 victims and close to 200,000 persons affected.

This Table is official although it does not provide detailed on each affected zone. ACT appeal LAPE71 5 Assistance to Peru earthquake victims Electricity: The earthquake caused the outage of electric power, contributing to further damages. This service is being gradually restored. In the province of Castrovirreyna the impact of the outage affected only those who are provided with the service. Approximately 50% of the population have no electricity at all. Water and Drainage: The entire water and drainage system collapsed in the coastal cities. This was one of the most critical aspects for the population in the days following the earthquake. The magnitude of this impact in the rural areas like Castrovirreyna has not been as great as in the cities on the coast, since most of the smaller communities lack these services. Health Infrastructure: Several hospitals and health centers collapsed in the disaster zones. This prevented the wounded from receiving immediate medical attention. According to the reconstruction plans, the hospitals and health centers are considered priorities. In Castrovirreyna 12 health centers collapsed and 24 are seriously damaged. Educational system: This system practically collapsed in the entire disaster zone.

  • Agricultural and Mining Labor Interactions in Peru: a Long-Run Perspective
    Agricultural and Mining Labor Interactions in Peru: ALong-RunPerspective(1571-1812) Apsara Iyer1 April 4, 2016 1Submitted for consideration of B.A. Economics and Mathematics, Yale College Class of 2016. Advisor: Christopher Udry Abstract This essay evaluates the context and persistence of extractive colonial policies in Peru on contemporary development indicators and political attitudes. Using the 1571 Toledan Reforms—which implemented a system of draft labor and reg- ularized tribute collection—as a point of departure, I build a unique dataset of annual tribute records for 160 districts in the Cuzco, Huamanga, Huancavelica, and Castrovirreyna regions of Peru over the years of 1571 to 1812. Pairing this source with detailed historic micro data on population, wages, and regional agri- cultural prices, I develop a historic model for the annual province-level output. The model’s key parameters determine the output elasticities of labor and capital and pre-tribute production. This approach allows for an conceptual understand- ing of the interaction between mita assignment and production factors over time. Ithenevaluatecontemporaryoutcomesofagriculturalproductionandpolitical participation in the same Peruvian provinces, based on whether or not a province was assigned to the mita. I find that assigning districts to the mita lowers the average amount of land cultivated, per capita earnings, and trust in municipal government Introduction For nearly 250 years, the Peruvian economy was governed by a rigid system of state tribute collection and forced labor. Though the interaction between historical ex- traction and economic development has been studied in a variety of post-colonial contexts, Peru’s case is unique due to the distinct administration of these tribute and labor laws.

  • The Persistent Effects of Peru's Mining Mita
    Econometrica, Vol. 78, No. 6 (November, 2010), 1863–1903 THE PERSISTENT EFFECTS OF PERU’S MINING MITA BY MELISSA DELL1 This study utilizes regression discontinuity to examine the long-run impacts of the mita, an extensive forced mining labor system in effect in Peru and Bolivia between 1573 and 1812. Results indicate that a mita effect lowers household consumption by around 25% and increases the prevalence of stunted growth in children by around 6 percentage points in subjected districts today. Using data from the Spanish Empire and Peruvian Republic to trace channels of institutional persistence, I show that the mita’s influence has persisted through its impacts on land tenure and public goods provision. Mita districts historically had fewer large landowners and lower educational attainment. Today, they are less integrated into road networks and their residents are substantially more likely to be subsistence farmers. KEYWORDS: Forced labor, land tenure, public goods. 1. INTRODUCTION THE ROLE OF HISTORICAL INSTITUTIONS in explaining contemporary underde- velopment has generated significant debate in recent years.2 Studies find quan- titative support for an impact of history on current economic outcomes (Nunn (2008), Glaeser and Shleifer (2002), Acemoglu, Johnson, and Robinson (2001, 2002), Hall and Jones (1999)), but have not focused on channels of persistence. Existing empirical evidence offers little guidance in distinguishing a variety of potential mechanisms, such as property rights enforcement, inequality, ethnic fractionalization, barriers to entry, and public goods. This paper uses variation in the assignment of an historical institution in Peru to identify land tenure and public goods as channels through which its effects persist.

GED JR 09-047 Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation (MVCS) Republic of Peru The Study on Housing Reconstruction with Seismic-resistant Houses in the Republic of Peru Final Report Main May 2009 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY ORIENTAL CONSULTANTS CO., LTD. The exchange rate applied in the Study is: JPY 1.00 = S/0.0318 US$1.00 = S/3.0334 (December, 2008) PREFACE In response to a request from the Government of the Republic of Peru, the Government of Japan decided to conduct the Study on Housing Reconstruction with Seismic-resistant Houses for the purpose of assisting in the reconstruction of houses destroyed by the earthquake that occurred on August 15th, 2007 in Peru. The Government of Japan entrusted to the study to Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). JICA selected and dispatched a study team headed by Mr. Ichiro Kobayashi of Oriental Consultants Co., LTD. between March, 2008 and March, 2009. The team held discussions with the officials concerned of the Government of the Republic of Peru and conducted field surveys at the study area. Upon returning to Japan, the team conducted further studies and prepared this final report. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of this project and to the enhancement of friendly relationship between our two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials concerned of the Government of the Republic of Peru for their close cooperation extended to the study.

  • Peru – Earthquake
    U.S. AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT BUREAU FOR DEMOCRACY, CONFLICT, AND HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE (DCHA) OFFICE OF U.S. FOREIGN DISASTER ASSISTANCE (OFDA) Peru – Earthquake Fact Sheet #4, Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 September 5, 2007 Note: The last fact sheet was dated August 27, 2007. KEY DEVELOPMENTS • On August 29, U.S. Ambassador P. Michael McKinley and a team of representatives from the U.S. Embassy in Lima, USAID/Peru, and USAID/OFDA traveled to Pisco Province to earthquake-affected areas.
