Evidence snapshot for Bogotá
Bogotá has implemented multiple evidence-backed social programmes targeting vulnerable populations. Bogotá's Care Blocks have supported 233,000 women by 2023, delivering over 200,000 services and freeing more than 18,000 caregiving hours through clustering childcare, job training, and legal services; a peer-reviewed evaluation found the at-home component reduced daily unpaid care work by over an hour. Youth Collective Minds, a co-designed digital mental-health platform tested with 435 users, scored 85 on the System Usability Scale but achieved only 18.8% first-day return rates and 26.5% telecounseling completion, indicating usability strength but engagement challenges.
