Resumen
Es conocida la situación de Argentina respecto a su seguridad alimentaria y sus problemáticas nutricionales, principalmente en la niñez, lo cual se expresa en las elevadas prevalencias que alcanza la malnutrición infantil. En este contexto estructural, la pandemia por Covid-19, ha profundizado los niveles de pobreza y las desigualdades existentes, componentes que, a su vez, habrían incidido en el acceso a los alimentos, comprometiendo así la seguridad alimentaria, principalmente en la infancia. Sin embargo, poco se conoce sobre el protagonismo que habrían tenido instituciones extra-familiares, como comedores comunitarios, para atenuar dicha condición. La provincia de Tucumán, particularmente, presenta distintas evidencias que han demostrado la persistencia de la pobreza y de los problemas nutricionales, entre los que se incluye la inseguridad alimentaria. Constituye, por tanto, un adecuado caso para analizar la problemática, considerando -mediante un abordaje cuali-cuantitativo- cambios y continuidades ante la irrupción de la pandemia.
The situation in Argentina regarding its food security and nutritional problems, mainly in childhood, is known, which is expressed in the high prevalences of child malnutrition. In this structural context, the Covid-19 pandemic has deepened poverty levels and existing inequalities, components that in turn have had an impact on access to food, thus compromising food security, mainly in childhood. However, little is known about the role that extra-family institutions such as community children’s canteens would have had to mitigate this condition. The province of Tucumán, in particular, presents different evidences that have demonstrated the persistence of poverty and nutritional problems, among which food insecurity is included. Therefore, it constitutes an appropriate case to analyze the problem considering changes and continuities in the face of the outbreak of the pandemic.
