Connected El Salvador
Connected El Salvador (Span. El Salvador Conectado) is a citizen initiative implemented with the objective of seeking technological solutions to address the COVID-19 pandemic. The initiative focuses on the solution of four main issues: access to information, combating false news, help during the COVID-19 crisis, and citizen empowerment. Citizens interested in participating can register as volunteers in any of the four themes to exchange ideas and contribute to existing initiatives. Those interested can also suggest new topics.
