Health, Environment and Fight against Poverty Project (SMALP-Chorrillos)
The Health, Environment and Fight against Poverty Project (SMALP-Chorrillos), formulated in 1991 and in progress until 1995, was a process to collaborate on and to promote the activities in the area of Health and Sanitation in the district of Chorrillos. In a cholera outbreak scenario, a group of representatives of various local committees took over the task of redefining and reorienting health management by incorporating direct community representatives and formulating health policies in a participatory manner. For this, they convened working groups and developed a participatory co-management plan. It represented an antecedent in the conformation of spaces of agreement in the field of health, where it had great repercussion.
