La familia, en la forma primaria y esencial para la supervivencia biol?gica, material y afectiva de los seres humanos, a trav?s de las distintas etapas de vida.

We examine the geographic dimensions of food consumption in Ecuador, which has one of the highest rates of chronic infant undernutrition in Latin America. We use statistical and spatial analyses to examine the distribution of food consumption and food poverty and to test and generate hypotheses of food poverty estimates at the district level. Results show that the food poor are concentrated in certain locations with a significant cluster identified in the central Andean region.
