Abstract

Durante los primeros an\x{0303}os de vida de las personas se establecen las bases para su desarrollo biolo\x{0301}gico, cognitivo y social. Es en esta etapa temprana cuando se define en gran medida la capacidad de cada individuo para desarrollarse y consolidarse en la edad adulta como un ser saludable, responsable y productivo para si\x{0301} mismo, su familia y la sociedad. CAF impulsa una agenda de trabajo en torno a los temas ma\x{0301}s sensibles al desarrollo de la regio\x{0301}n, abordando aspectos clave, como la provisio\x{0301}n de servicios ba\x{0301}sicos y de educacio\x{0301}n inclusiva y de calidad. A esto, ahora se suma el desafi\x{0301}o de definir una agenda que, mediante la reduccio\x{0301}n de la desnutricio\x{0301}n infantil cro\x{0301}nica, priorice el desarrollo de las potencialidades de los nin\x{0303}os aprovechando la capacidad institucional de CAF. Si bien la mayori\x{0301}a de los pai\x{0301}ses de Latinoame\x{0301}rica ha reducido la desnutricio\x{0301}n en menores de 5 an\x{0303}os, au\x{0301}n persisten marcadas inequidades, tanto entre los pai\x{0301}ses como al interior de los mismos. La desnutricio\x{0301}n cro\x{0301}nica (retraso del crecimiento) afecta de manera muy desigual a los nin\x{0303}os ma\x{0301}s vulnerables, particularmente a los que viven en a\x{0301}reas rurales, a los ma\x{0301}s pobres y a aquellos cuya madre tiene menor nivel de escolaridad. El objetivo central de la Agenda es contribuir a reducir la prevalencia de la desnutricio\x{0301}n cro\x{0301}nica y las deficiencias de micronutrientes en la infancia temprana en los pai\x{0301}ses de la regio\x{0301}n.
