📋 Tender Overview
More than 500 computer equipment, including computers and tablets, along with solar energy and internet, will benefit 19 educational institutions and a higher institute in LoretoThe Ministry of Education (Minedu) is developing a project to provide technological equipment and digital infrastructure that will benefit public educational institutions in the Isla Santa Rosa district, located on the Amazon River, in the province of Mariscal Ramon Castilla, Loreto region. This action will reach 19 schools and one institute, located in 12 locations with difficult river access, with the aim of guaranteeing the availability of digital tools and improving learning conditions.
As part of this action, Minedu, through the Office of Educational Technologies (OTIC), acquired 225 computers, 321 tablets and 20 printers, which were received in December at the Republica del Peru Educational Institution, the districts main headquarters. The equipment went through a process of technical verification, inventory and functional tests, prior to its final distribution in the beneficiary educational institutions.
Given that several communities where the educational institutions are located do not have conventional electrical energy, the project included the installation of photovoltaic systems (solar panels) and the laying of electrical wiring in the innovation classrooms. Likewise, the internet connectivity service was implemented, guaranteeing adequate conditions for the use of technological equipment.
The initiative is carried out in two phases. The first, completed in December 2025, included the receipt of the equipment and the implementation of the technological infrastructure. The second, scheduled for February 2026 and coordinated with the UGEL Mariscal Ramon Castilla, contemplates the distribution of the equipment to 11 locations, including Puerto Alegria, Chineria, Yajumacayuro, Rondina, Alberto Fujimori, Ollanta Humala and Isla Santa Rosa.
In this framework, the Minister of Education, Jorge Figueroa Guzman, highlighted that the provision of technological equipment and digital infrastructure to educational institutions located in the border area of Santa Rosa Island is part of the strategy for the Good Start of the 2026 School Year, aimed at guaranteeing adequate learning conditions from the first day of classes, especially in territories with greater access gaps.
This action seeks to ensure that elementary, primary and secondary school students have tablets, computers and printers from the beginning of the 2026 school year, as well as strengthening the digital skills of teachers and students through future induction sessions.
In this sense, Minister Figueroa Guzman pointed out that the work being carried out in the sector is aimed at benefiting all students in the country, and that a concrete example of this is the intervention carried out on Santa Rosa Island, one of the furthest border areas from the national territory.
He also indicated that, although the actions are important, what is fundamental are the results, and that these are reflected in the improvements that are being promoted today for the benefit of students in this part of the country.
In this way, the Minedu reaffirms its commitment to reducing the digital divide and strengthening the educational service in rural and border areas of the country, within the framework of the Good Start strategy for the 2026 School Year.
