Ruralia is the first accelerator of rural education in Peru driven by the private sector, which makes visible and articulates the rural education ecosystem and promotes acceleration programs so that interventions implemented by civil, public or private actors can scale their impact and generate evidence to contribute to the closing of gaps and influence public policy. Ruralia's objective is to accelerate the closing of educational gaps in rural areas of the country in order to achieve a fairer education for all Peruvians. To achieve this, Ruralia is located in a strategic position from where we work with all the actors that are part of the rural educational ecosystem, where impact educational projects are already being implemented.
"From Ruralia, our commitment is to contribute to the closing of educational gaps in rural areas so that any Peruvian, no matter where he or she is, has the same opportunities and thus build a sustainable country. Therefore, we consider it of utmost importance to identify and articulate the rural education ecosystem, as well as to strengthen the capacities of interventions to scale their impact and generate evidence to contribute to closing gaps and influence public policy at the national level.
