Vidawasi is a non-governmental organisation based in Lima, Peru working on health, children & youth.

Vidawasi is a non-profit social organisation in Peru that promotes and runs child health and cultural initiatives. It built the Ciudadela de Salud Infantil Virgen de Vidawasi, which it describes as the first children's health citadel in Latin America, in Yanahuara, Urubamba province, Cusco region.
