The
Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion (Midis) reported that, with the aim of contributing to the development of populated areas across Peru, residents accessed more than 6 million social services in 2025 through the coordinated work carried out by the National PAIS Program, via its service platforms known as Tambos and the Itinerant Social Action Platform (PIAS).
Through joint efforts with public and private entities, the initiative exceeded its initial service-delivery target by 12%, benefiting more than 742,000 people across 22 regions.
This work brought essential services closer to communities—covering healthcare, the right to identity, educational development, productive guidance, and access to social programs—without requiring residents to travel to provincial or regional capitals, saving them time and money.
518 Tambos serving more Peruvians
In order to be closer to the most vulnerable population, the 518 Tambos from the PAIS program delivered 3,700,000 multisectoral services, improving the quality of life of more than 600,000 people in rural areas of the Andes and the rainforest.
Through various initiatives driven by institutional managers and the implementation of strategies such as caravans and multisectoral interventions, the program delivered, among others, more than 3,707,240 medical services.
This coordinated effort across the three levels of government has contributed to the development of more than 15,000 populated areas.
Particular emphasis was placed on localities located in the Valley of Apurimac, Mantaro and Ene Rivers (VRAEM), the Huallaga Valley, border areas, and communities situated above 4,000 meters above sea level.
PIAS brought development to remote areas
For their part, the 14 Itinerant Social Action Platforms (PIAS) carried out 55 river, lake, and air campaigns, delivering main Peruvian State services to more than 1,700 communities in Loreto, Ucayali, and Puno regions.
Working in coordination with the Armed Forces, regional governments, and more than 15 public entities, the PIAS delivered 2,300,000 services to 140,000 people, following their arrival in 413 localities across the Amazon region and the Altiplano (Andean high plateau).
One of the most rewarding services provided is care for pregnant women.
This year, 41 births were recorded during the campaigns carried out by the PIAS, enabling newborns to receive immediate access to their first medical checkups and vaccinations, as well as their birth certificates and other essential services.
