Spanish term or phrase: descorporativizar
An interesting word if I've ever seen one...

La principal lección aprendida quizás sea que al activarse una estrategia que trata de involucrar actores no tradicionales en el tema de la niñez , la discusión se descorporativiza y se produce una ampliación de actores inimaginable antes del inicio de las actividades respectivas.

Any help is greatly appreciated, I can't come up with anything!

Explanation:
According to RAE's Spanish dictionary (2001), this word itself does not exist, BUT, one of the meanings of "corporativismo" is: "En un grupo o sector profesional, tendencia abusiva a la solidaridad interna y a la defensa de los intereses del cuerpo [grupo]." From your paragraph I gather the context is related to such meaning, so I would say: "the discussion/debate opens up to an endlessly wider range of actors," or something like that.

to de-corporate


Explanation:
I think I have just invented a word. Please ask Oxford to include it in their dictionary...

Although I don't know if the word exists or not, it conveys the meaning. Just see if it fits.

de-institutionalize


Explanation:
From the context, I take it the "usual" agents associated with childhood and infant care are expanded to include what would be non-habitual.
