In Bolivia, mutual support through neighborhood networks has been a successful -albeit little publicized- strategy in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. This experience has mobilized thousands of people around the world and has managed to overcome a series of vicissitudes generated by the virus and by the response of governments. This article, the result of a study conducted in the metropolitan area of Cochabamba during the first stage of the pandemic, focuses on the remarkable forms of pandemic management and solidarity strategies developed in neighborhoods where joint work is common.

Keywords : mutual support; urban self- management; Covid-19; Cochabamba.
