Jorge Mori, director general of the Center for Public Policy Analysis for Higher Education, cited legislation undermining Suneda, approved for insisting on Congress of the Republic.
The specialist spoke in detail about the three key points of the law on the counter-reform of the university and how it will affect the functioning Sunedu.
Mori argued, firstly, that the new composition of the Board of Directors would take away powers from Sunedufor it is the universities that will have the majority and ultimately make the decisions.
“This makes Sunedu independent of the decisions it makes with universities. Now three members of the board of directors will be representatives of universities and a representative College of Professionals they will have a majority to elect a new superintendent (Suneda),” he explained in News RPP.
In this sense, he recalled that constitutional Court already declared unconstitutional the way in which Advice Executive.
“I think the big problem is the conflict of interest. He puts the universities as judge and jury, even though that’s what it was. constitutional Court He said it was wrong because universities cannot regulate themselves,” he said.
Same way, I died argued that the university’s counter-reform law “takes away Ministry of Education the possibility of him funding public universities,” which would be detrimental to both the public universities themselves and the students.
“This is something that congressmen have failed to explain,” Mori said, adding that in 2021, Minedu funded almost a billion soles worth of improvements to public universities.
As a third point, I died questioned the resumption of the National System for Evaluation, Accreditation and Certification of Educational Quality (Sineace), “an accreditation body that failed to fulfill its functions”, the same one that was activated “without any technical arguments”.
“We are facing a norm that will force us to return to the gains made in recent years,” he said.
Congress passed the law at the urging
The plenary session was held last Wednesday Congress At the urging, he approved the autograph of a law weakening Suneda’s autonomy. The norm was approved by 72 votes to 39, with 4 abstentions.
Congress approved in May last year in the second vote the draft law on the reorganization of the board of directors National Higher Education Authority (Suneda). The argument of those who supported this rule was that it restored the autonomy and institutionality of the Peruvian universities.
