Abstract

The article focuses on the analysis and interpretation of the various strategies of participation and influence of social, institutional and political actors in the process of local public policies (PPPL) in the Provincial Municipality of Puno; whose methodological approach is qualitative and phenomenological, because it analyzes and interprets the subjectivities and intersubjectivities of the actors.  collected through semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The strategies for the participation and influence of actors in local public policies are varied and hierarchical by type of actors and by gender, and those who determine the course of policies are the political and institutional actors, with the legitimacy of the social actors; in this process, gender inequalities are still reproduced. However, important changes are foreseen in the performance of gender public actions aimed at greater complementarity between the two.
