An application avoids the people to crowd

    Piura, Peru – Framed by the state of emergency due to Covid-19, the  Mi Juntos  application is contributing the Juntos Social Relief Programe’s user families know the date and the place what they can charge their grants, avoiding the crowds this way .

 

 

According to the report by the Juntos’ Information Technologies Unit, 25,396 queries were done during September 2020  in 49 districts of eight provinces in Piura Region. Such queries were done through an application installed on a cellphone and/or through a personal computer going to Juntos (Together) website.

 

 

The Mi Juntos application is a technologic tool that allows the female users to learn in detail about the 200-sol (60-dollar) grants they receive every two months, even provided they honor the commitment to bring their kids to the school and have a preventory check-in at the health posts. In the case of pregnants, it is requested to attend the pre-natal controls. However, while the state of emergency is vigent in Peru, these exigencies were suspended to accomplish.

 

 

Advisory by phone
