The Minister of Education, Jorge Figueroa Guzman, pointed out that, within the framework of the 2026 Educational Materials Provision, the Government has scheduled the distribution of 2,700,256 units of educational material for students in border areas, as a concrete action aimed at closing gaps, strengthening territorial equity and ensuring adequate learning conditions in the most remote regions of the country.
The head of the sector provided these statements during the inspection of the Minedu central warehouse, located in the Cercado de Lima district, where the last batches of school supplies are in the process of dispatch and distribution to points in the country pending attention.
In the case of the border areas, it is planned to reach the provinces of Ayabaca and Huancabamba, in Piura; as well as Putumayo, Maynas, Ramon Castilla, Requena and the city of Nauta, in Loreto. Many of these locations can only be served by river transportation, using boats and other boats.
We are deploying a comprehensive logistics operation, with all the necessary efforts to ensure that educational materials arrive in a timely manner. To this end, we have formed a multi-sector committee with the participation of various ministries, including Defense, which provides us with support to serve the most remote and difficult-to-access areas of the country, in order to guarantee that no child, at the national level, is left without the necessary material for their learning, said the Minister of Education, Jorge Figueroa Guzman.
Likewise, he specified that these interventions contemplate the distribution of 13,096,904 units of educational materials, corresponding to 430 titles or items, with an approximate investment of S/42.5 million, aimed at serving nearly six million students from more than 64,000 educational institutions and Regular, Special and Alternative Basic Education programs.
The head of the sector added that the progress in the delivery of educational materials throughout the country already reaches 86%, and stressed the importance of ensuring relevant content that responds to the cultural diversity of the country.
A priority component of this policy is Intercultural Bilingual Education (EIB), which considers materials in 31 native languages, in addition to Quechua and its six variants. Likewise, the equipment incorporates materials adapted to the Braille system, specialized pedagogical instruments and electronic equipment, reinforcing the inclusive education approach and attention to students with special educational needs.
