  • Luis Armando Galvis-Aponte

Abstract

El trabajo analiza el uso de los recursos públicos destinados al sector educativo. El objetivo es evaluar la eficiencia del gasto territorial con recursos del Sistema General de Participaciones (SGP), específicamente, su eficiencia relativa. Para este fin se emplea la metodología del análisis envolvente de datos. Se encuentra que la eficiencia promedio en la cobertura se encuentra en 62,3 para educación. En calidad la eficiencia solo llega al 48,8%. Ello implica que, sobre todo en calidad, los municipios requieren esfuerzos para mejorar su desempeno y la eficiencia con que emplean los recursos provenientes del SGP
