Evidence snapshot for Peru
Peru has implemented several evidence-backed reforms to expand opportunity and inclusion. Peru's Electoral Gender Parity and Alternation Reform mandated 50/50 gender parity on candidate lists, raising women's congressional representation from 27.7% to 38.2% between 2016 and 2021. Internet para Todos expanded rural broadband access to 3.1 million Peruvians across 16,700+ localities by end-2022, benefiting lower-income and isolated communities. Peru's PETT/COFOPRI Joint Land Titling formalized spousal co-ownership on rural titles, with quasi-experimental evidence showing women's household decision-making participation rose 5–15 percentage points in highland regions. However, Lima Cómo Vamos data reveal persistent urban quality-of-life challenges, with citizen security dissatisfaction at 87% and satisfaction with air quality and green space declining 2010–2019, with steeper declines for lower-income residents.
