📋 Tender Overview
Citizens over 60 years of age, accredited by the Comptrollers Office, carry out citizen surveillance actions. The members of the Social Control Mentors program of the Comptroller General of the Republic verified compliance with the recommendations related to the operation of the video surveillance cameras of the District Municipality of Jesus Nazareno.
During this intervention, and together with the auditors of the Comptrollers Office, they met with municipal officials to request the necessary documentation and sign a commitment agreement in order to make the video surveillance cameras operational for the benefit of the population.
These actions were carried out as a practical part of the face-to-face workshop called Citizen Surveillance, where the Social Control Mentors strengthened their capacities in government control and citizen surveillance.
The aforementioned program seeks to promote citizen control in public management through the participation of volunteers over 60 years of age, in addition to being designed to take advantage of the experience and knowledge of those who, from their incorporation as mentors, contribute to the implementation of the recommendations derived from the control reports.
Fourteen senior citizens have joined the program in the Ayacucho region to increase citizen participation mechanisms. At the national level, 599 volunteers are part of this initiative whose objective is to strengthen social control throughout the country.
This experience marks a significant advance in the promotion of citizen surveillance and the active participation of senior citizens in the supervision of the correct use of public resources.
