Mobile Mayoral Office
The Mobile Mayor's Office was an initiative that was carried out in 2003 in the Mayor's Office of the Central District with the aim of making the social services provided by the municipality and other organizations more accessible to vulnerable groups, improving their living conditions. The experience registers the creation of two Mobile Mayor's Offices during the year 2003. For the first Mobile Mayoral Office, a total of 31 buses were used. They transported approximately 5000 neighbors. During the second Mobile Mayoral Office, a total of 2400 people from 17 different communities participated. As a result of this initiative, there is information indicating an improvement in the living conditions of the population - especially amongst children - through the implementation of local strategies at all socioeconomic and environmental levels. In turn, there have been changes in behavior in the population, as well as changes in the role played by each person in improving their quality of life.
