Community Development Program for Peace
The Community Development Program for Peace was carried out in Guatemala since 1997 until 2004. It was carried out after the Peace Agreements of with the objective of delegating to the communities the processes for the selection, planning and execution of development projects and post-conflict reconstruction.

Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
