Poverty is a complex socioeconomic problem with multiple dimensions, well studied and well known; education is key and fundamental to reduce poverty; the higher the educational level, the less poverty; On the contrary, a lower educational level would lead us to more poverty. Peru continues to be the country that invests the least in education in the region.
