Today, while the country shows macroeconomic progress, millions of Peruvians are falling behind in their quality of life. Poverty and extreme poverty have reached alarming levels once again, leaving a deep mark especially on Indigenous communities, high-Andean areas, and informal settlements on the outskirts of cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The images we see \u2014a mother walking under the scorching sun, carrying her child and water across a barren urban desert, or a boy caring for his baby sister instead of playing\u2014 are not isolated scenes. They are daily realities for more than <strong>9 million Peruvians<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the current situation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Peru\u2019s National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI), <strong>monetary poverty rose to 29.0% in 2023<\/strong>, affecting nearly <strong>9.8 million people<\/strong>. Of these, over <strong>1.7 million live in extreme poverty<\/strong>, unable to meet even their most basic food needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most affected regions include Ayacucho, Huancavelica, Puno, Loreto, and Cajamarca, though urban belts of Lima and other regional capitals also suffer from severe structural poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is poverty increasing?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Unemployment and underemployment<\/strong>: The economic crisis post-COVID, coupled with ongoing political instability, has weakened Peru\u2019s job market. Millions now work informally, earning below survival wages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Food inflation<\/strong>: Rising prices for essential goods have drastically reduced purchasing power, particularly for low-income families.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Unequal access to basic services<\/strong>: Many rural and peri-urban areas lack clean water, electricity, healthcare, and education.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Climate change<\/strong>: Droughts, natural disasters, and crop losses further threaten food security, especially in farming communities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Agape Hand doing about it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <strong>\u00c1gape Hand<\/strong>, we don\u2019t watch poverty from a distance \u2014 <strong>we work in it, with it, and for it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our organization has launched several direct-action programs in areas most affected by extreme poverty, focusing on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/agapehands.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/agape-hand-hungry-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15895\" style=\"aspect-ratio:3\/4;object-fit:cover\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solidarity Food Banks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We distribute nutritious, essential food to hundreds of families in rural and Indigenous communities, ensuring no child goes to bed hungry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water for Life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We bring clean, safe water to areas with severe shortages, using sustainable solutions like community tanks and filtration systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Child Education and Nutrition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We promote holistic development for children through school support, healthy meals, and emotional care. Poverty doesn\u2019t just take away food \u2014 it takes away opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Women\u2019s Empowerment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We support women-led households with training, tools, and community support networks so they can generate income and build dignified futures for their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What must be done?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fighting poverty in Peru is not the government\u2019s responsibility alone \u2014 it\u2019s everyone\u2019s: citizens, businesses, social organizations, and the global community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s time to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Increase social investment with a regional approach.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strengthen rural education and primary healthcare.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create decent and sustainable jobs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guarantee fair access to food and water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support grassroots efforts like \u00c1gape Hand that work from within the heart of the crisis.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every child carrying their sibling instead of a schoolbag.<br>Every mother walking miles with an empty bucket.<br>Every family unsure of their next meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They all are calling out to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What will we do about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At \u00c1gape Hand, we\u2019ve already started.
