This article examines the public debate and political measures taken in relation to child support and emergency monetary transfers in 19 Latin American countries during the first eight months of the pandemic. Though every child and youth not living with one of her or his parents has a right to child support, in Latin America the vast majority of them do not receive them. We seek to determine the degree to which this problem is visible and review government efforts to address it in general, and measures explicitly linked to the right of the family to social protection in particular. After determining media coverage of child support and reviewing information from regional data depositories and official sources regarding the measures identified, this articles provides an overview of developments in the area of social protection related to emergency monetary transfers and food subsidies. Highly innovative measures were identified that associated child support with social protection (unemployment insurance and pension funds). In addition, emergency cash transfers could have ended up guaranteeing income among children. The article underlines the opportunities created through the measures implemented and concludes that in both the best and the worst national scenarios analyzed, the guarantee of income for children depends to a great degree on strengthening their links with social protection through, for example, a universal basic income. |

Aunque las transferencias alimentarias son un derecho de toda persona menor de edad que no convive con uno de sus progenitores, la enorme mayoría de niños, niñas y adolescentes de esta región no las recibe. Buscamos determinar la visibilidad del problema y el esfuerzo estatal referente a esta cuestión, en general, y las medidas que explícitamente vincularon el derecho de familia con la protección social, en particular. Una vez determinada la presencia de los subsidios alimentarios en medios de prensa y, a partir de análisis documental de repositorios regionales y fuentes oficiales de las medidas identificadas, este artículo ofrece una visión panorámica de lo ocurrido desde la protección social con respecto a traslados monetarios de emergencia, por un lado, y las pensiones alimentarias, por el otro. Entre las medidas se identificaron aquellas, muy innovadoras, que asociaron las pensiones alimentarias a la protección social (seguros de desempleo y fondos de pensiones). Adicionalmente, la presencia extendida de transferencias monetarias de emergencia constituye una acción indirecta que pudo acercar ingresos a las personas menores de edad. El artículo subraya las oportunidades creadas por las medidas desplegadas y concluye argumentando que, tanto en los mejores como en los peores escenarios nacionales distinguidos, la garantía del ingreso a las personas menores de edad en buena medida depende de profundizar su lazo con la protección social mediante, por ejemplo, una renta básica universal.Universidad del Pacífico2021-05-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.up.edu.pe/index.php/apuntes/article/view/1512Apuntes.
