📋 Tender Overview
Through Pronied, 15 educational institutions in both regions will have thermal conditioning to cope with the harsh high Andean climate.The Ministry of Education (Minedu), through the National Educational Infrastructure Program (Pronied), will carry out thermal conditioning interventions at 15 educational institutions located in the Cusco and Puno regions, to protect educational communities in high Andean areas from extreme cold. In this regard, the Minister of Education, Maria Esther Cuadros Espinoza, highlighted that these actions are part of a comprehensive strategy to mitigate the effects of climate on learning.
Our priority is to guarantee that no student has their right to education affected by inclement weather. With these conditioned classrooms, we provide a safe and warm environment that allows children and young people to concentrate on their classes without suffering from low temperatures, stressed the head of the sector.
These interventions, which will be executed by the Pronied Maintenance Management Unit, will require an investment of more than S/3.5 million soles and will benefit a total of 332 students from Puno and Cusco, who will have classrooms with the necessary insulation to resist the extreme temperatures of the high Andean areas.
With an investment of more than S/2.6 million, ten educational institutions in the Puno region: 70280 (Zepita), 70068 (Coata), 72262 (Huancane), 70500 (Orurillo), 72698 (Munani), 72088 (Asillo), 70213 (Juli), 361 (Saman), 680 (Huacullani), 72135 (Pedro Vilca Apaza) will be intervened to mitigate the impact of frost, guaranteeing a resilient structure in the face of extreme climate. Similarly, in the Cusco region, more than S/1.3 million was allocated to ensure the conditioning and thermal comfort of schools: 56341 (Chamaca), 733 (Colquepata), 50557 (Ccarhuayo), 56446 (Quinota) and 240 Clorinda Matto de Turner / 50441 Sor Ana de Los Angeles Monteagudo (Paucartambo), allowing students have spaces protected from low temperatures.
The intervention through thermal conditioning by Pronied consists of improving rural school infrastructure (classrooms) by insulating floors, walls and ceilings, and installing double-glazed windows, to protect students from frost and cold, maintaining a comfortable temperature. These interventions reduce vulnerability to extreme conditions.
Through these actions, Minedu and Pronied reaffirm their commitment to improving the educational conditions of thousands of children and young people throughout Peru.
