vePatria Mobile Application | Public Institutions

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

It is a mobile application to connect to the Patria platform from a smartphone. Through VePatria, the 20 million registered Venezuelans can access the system and its benefits from any mobile device, having the same functionalities it has on the web.
As an extension of Patria Platform, citizens through this app can register their daily self-diagnosis on COVID-19 symptoms, fill out open government consultations on the pandemic and the measures implemented, receive social support bonds, among others.
