Within this framework, the Head of State urged the participating ministers and regional governors to speed up the implementation of the points agreed upon at the first meeting of this type.
Similarly, the top official denied that the government has interests other than those of improving the country.
"We don't have any lobbies; we are not stealing a single Sol (Peruvian currency) from the country," she expressed.
In this sense, addressing regional governors, Mrs. Boluarte said she hopes that "once we have completed our term in office in 2026, we —you and us— at least will be able to partially say 'mission accomplished,' in terms of water, drainage, anemia reduction, bringing health (services) closer, providing quality education, and having brought our brothers (and sisters) from the jungle closer to State-run services."
Likewise, President Boluarte announced that the Third Regional State Council will take place during the third week of November.
Thus, she asked ministers and governors to have completed by then all agreements adopted at the first meeting of this type (held last May), in addition to advancing with what was established at the event closed today.
When listing what was agreed at the latest meeting, Mrs. Boluarte mentioned the formation of a technical committee to evaluate the creation of a special economic zone in rainforest Loreto region so as to boost the development of said jurisdiction.
A congress of Amazonian entrepreneurs will also be held. In order to get prepared for that gathering, the Multisectoral Commission for the Development of Amazonia will meet in Huanuco region on September 21.
The president said that, to generate opportunities in Lambayeque region, a technical committee will be formed aimed at boosting articulated development projects and promoting options for the productive corridor of Lambayeque, Cajamarca, and Amazonas regions.
Similarly, Mrs. Boluarte indicated that the Niños de Hierro (Iron Children) program will be implemented to reduce anemia among minors under 36 months of age in 879 districts hit by poverty.
Furthermore, the top official announced that a High-Performance School will be implemented in La Libertad region to enhance skills and education in values in that northern area.
She noted that, joined by regional authorities, the need to carry out important projects such as Chavimochic III, potable water for Juliaca (Puno region), and high-complexity hospitals in various parts of Peru have been reaffirmed at this meeting.
Added to this —she said— is the Health Ministry's agenda to implement medical centers nationwide so that the care provided by this sector is available to the most vulnerable citizens while high complexity hospitals become equipped.
