Led by former congressmen Gilbert Violeta, Salvador Heresi and Juan Sheput, Contigo participated of the 2020 parliamentary snap election and the 2021 general election, in both occasions earning a low share of votes in comparison to the success of its preceding organization, Peruvians for Change, which achieved the Peruvian presidency with Pedro Pablo Kuczynski at the 2016 general election.[5][6]
The party was officially dissolved following the 2021 general election for not passing the electoral threshold.
