Safe Block App
Cuadra Segura (lit. Secure Block) is an interactive space that is promoted by the Government of the Province of Cordoba, whereby neighbors can communicate and raise complaints to the Police in case of crimes or suspicious situations in neighborhoods. It is done through WhatsApp groups that bring together neighbors who inhabit the same block in which delegates from each street participate.
