This initiative promotes the formation of interinstitutional alliances to effectively address extreme poverty, inequality, and vulnerability. The government, civil society organizations, and the business sector work together to coordinate and implement social policies and programs. This includes promoting social cohesion, redistributing income and wealth, planning and designing policies, ensuring information transparency, and involving beneficiaries in development programs. The alliance also integrates state functions, such as the Social Cabinet, National Council of Social Policies, state university, and government offices in the territory to jointly manage social programs and strengthen institutional capacity. Through this alliance, the government aims to create a comprehensive and inclusive approach to tackle social challenges.
