Honduras: Consultoría para la Identificación de Pautas de Crianza

Organization: UN Children’s Fund
Country: Honduras
Closing date: 23 Oct 2017

UNICEF concede una principal importancia a los primeros años de vida de los niños y niñas. Aboga para que la inversión en esta etapa de la vida sea la suficiente para garantizar el desarrollo integral de la primera infancia en igualdad de condiciones y oportunidades.

La evidencia demuestra que para garantizar un adecuado desarrollo infantil temprano, los niños y niñas tienen que tener acceso a una buena salud básica, una nutrición adecuada, el inicio de una educación pre básica y a una protección social y familiar que evite la violencia. También está documentado que el desarrollo integral se ve también afectado por las pautas de crianza, que si son discriminatorias por razones de género, pueden afectar negativamente la personalidad de niños y niñas.

No se encuentran investigaciones que permitan conocer las principales pautas, patrones y prácticas de crianzas en la primera infancia de Honduras, y mucho menos en pueblos indígenas. Por lo anterior es necesario realizar estudios que permitan contar con mayor información sobre los saberes y las prácticas de crianza de los pueblos indígenas con la finalidad de contribuir a la construcción de un enfoque intercultural para los programas dirigidos a los niños y niñas en la primera infancia.
