Challenge
Access to health is a human right. However, 36% of Argentines do not have organized health coverage, the public system has serious structural deficiencies. The situation becomes dramatic if we look at what happens with children under 17. In 2019, 22.6% did not consult a doctor. 45.3% did not visit a dentist, and 52.7% have no social work or private health coverage. NCDs ascend to worrying figures and harm the future of childhood. The poorest Argentines find great barriers to accessing health.
Description
We create a technological application that brings together neighborhood centers, social organizations and medical centers. With an important focus on personal meetings. We train them with health promoters who do not have access to health, NGOs gather and advise neighbors, we hold women's meetings with psychologists to avoid situations of violence and we train them as health promoters, nutritionists promote healthy habits and create garden spaces to Let the neighbors generate their own food.
Outcomes
Currently impact 6500 residents of deprived neighborhoods. Seeking to scale to 60 organizations with an impact on around 30 thousand people.
