Foundation Tutator

Fundación Tutator

Tutator's main focus is on how technology can be used to radically improve various social services such as justice, protection, immigration etc. Its initial focus has been on Juvenile Justice in Nicaragua, where the juvenile justice system in the whole country now runs on its platform. Tutator advocates for the re-humanization of social services by designing automation tools that will turn the beneficiary back into a person, instead of being just a number and a statistic:

- Allow the actors of the social services to do their job not only efficiently but also well: that is, be able to customize services for each and every beneficiary within the framework of ever-more-complex rules and guidelines, and
- Offer transparency, traceability and full accountability at every level. Whenever appropriate, the beneficiaries themselves can gain access to their own file.
