    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Trabajo Social, 2025-07-24) Aldas Álvarez, Mickael Sergio; Espín Miniguano, Anita Dalila
    The current study, titled "Social Determinants of Child Nutrition in the San Fernando Parish, Ambato Canton," was developed to analyze how social factors directly influence children's nutritional status. There were three specific objectives of the social work: to theoretically substantiate social factors, identify factors that affect children's diet, and determine the impact of that diet on children's development. Children's nutrition is a fundamental pillar of development. In the San Fernando Parish, several social factors have a direct impact on children's nutritional status, including the socioeconomic status of families. This research is part of the study: patterns of social behavior. To achieve the objectives, a quantitative design was used, with a descriptive, non-experimental method. A population of 80 childcare providers from the San Fernando Parish was selected. The results showed a significant relationship between social variables, such as children's education, household income, and access to medical care, and a lower-quality diet. Using the Spearman factor, a direct relationship between the observed social factors and nutrition was confirmed. Finally, recommendations were made to improve families' socioeconomic conditions, promote nutritional education, and increase health professionals' understanding of social factors, and outline future research.

    The objective of this study was to determine the socioeconomic situation of the families in the organization SALEM International, with a sample of 18 families, a total of 87 people, and in order to measure the efficiency of the process carried out by the organization to address the social problems of the parish of Mindo, we worked with 18 external families, 74 people. The research had a quantitative approach where the tool used was the survey, which allowed gathering information on several dimensions such as: origin, priority attention groups, education, health, work, housing, household dynamics, violence, economy, and food. The results obtained showed that the socioeconomic conditions of the families that attend the organization on a daily basis have a higher percentage of needs than those of the Mindeña community and that the social-technical support, together with the family commitment, turns out to be timely when it comes to transforming and improving the usual way of developing in a given context where education is low, the salary is less than the basic wage and domestic violence is high.
