2022 Award "Best Practice in Citizen Participation"

As International Cooperation Unit of the Provincial Government of Napo we stopped being a priority for some NGOs and decided to knock on doors in the hardest moments for the whole world as was the Pandemic due to Covid 19, however seeing the situation of people in our province who urgently needed help, motivated us to do so.

And so we achieved our goal and as GAD Provincial de Napo we channeled the donation to those who needed it most.

We think the most gratifying experience is just to see the happiness of the people when we arrive with a donation for their ailment, for their disability or to supply what they need.

The result was incredible because we helped when they least expected it but most needed it, even not only waiting for them to come, but also going to places that were often more difficult to enter, but we did it.

Currently, thanks to our seriousness and compliance, we are about to receive new donations, but we are also receiving an enormous amount of requests.

We have organized ourselves as International Cooperation Unit, to make a data bank and repeat the donations, and also when we give an aid, for example a mobile latrine for a certain person and he/she no longer needs it or unfortunately dies, through the follow-up we do, we withdraw it and give it to another person or persons who are also on the waiting list.
