The importance given by the Kuczynski administration to social justice has a correlation with the development of public policies in education, health, access to water and sanitation, Peru’s second Vice-President Mercedes Araoz affirmed.

Araoz referred to the Head of State’s remarks made during the closing of the Annual Conference of Executives (CADE) 2016 in Paracas (Ica region), and welcomed the country’s conviction to work towards a buoyant market economy and social justice.

She went on to add the government has focused on social issues, not only through social programs, but using the necessary complements that provide “adequate living conditions,” especially for the least favored.

As is known, Mr. Kuczynski said his administration seeks to continue the good economic development work linked to “social justice.”

“The president set out a strategic vision to get the country off the ground. This vision goes beyond current political situations,” she told Andina news agency. 

She underlined the scope of this projection aims to “set out the country’s actual development stage,” and remarked the president has modestly listened to all lectures at CADE 2016.

Likewise, Araoz highlighted that State ministers have announced “clear goals and challenges they have committed to accomplish.”
