Inequality, equity and inclusion in higher education in Honduras

Abstract

This document constitutes an analysis of the current situation of education in
Honduras in terms of inequality, inclusion and educational equity. For this it is fundamental and It is necessary to know the political tendencies of the country and the region. The evaluated parameters are have strongly linked with the poverty generated by the different opportunities in education, employment and low economic income. In Honduras, there is a slight reduction in the inequality in 2011 compared to 2009 this despite: the political and social crisis experienced in the country in 2009. Current efforts to improve equity in education focus on the search of interventions that, managing the scarce resources available, reduce the gaps in the access and school performance associated with differences by socioeconomic strata, groups
ethnicity, gender, or region of student residence.
