To prevent the population included in the group most vulnerable to contagion by the new coronavirus leaving home, namely the elderly and people with chronic diseases, the Municipality of Proença-a-Nova and the Parish Councils and Unions created a solidarity network for situations of emergency, namely for the purchase of medicines or essential goods, among others.
In each village, an interlocutor between the population and the Parish Councils is being defined to communicate needs, and the Municipality is responsible for the subsequent delivery of orders.
To facilitate all the communication between the interlocutors and the Municipality, volunteers developed a web and a mobile app during the weekend using OutSystems and made available to Municipality employees to use, tracking the daily requests with the necessary details.
