Abstract

La evidencia empírica ha demostrado la importancia de la nutrición en los estados de salud, el desempeño escolar y la productividad laboral de los individuos, así como en el crecimiento económico. Debido a que una de las regiones con más deficientes situaciones nutricionales en Colombia es la del Pacífico, este documento explora el rol de esta condición en la perpetuación de la pobreza en la región y sus determinantes directos. Entre los problemas estructurales encontrados como insumos para la persistencia de los círculos de pobreza basados en nutrición en la región se encontraron: la relación entre la actividad minera y la violencia, el limitado desarrollo de la articulación vial y las condiciones de empleo de los hogares.
