National Board for Migration in Guatemala
The National Board for Migration in Guatemala (Span. MENAMIG) emerged in 1999 based on the need to create a space for convergence between civil society and the Government, and that from this dialogue, the protection of the migrant population through public policies (whether of Guatemalan migrants or of migrants in the country) could also emerge. The National Bureau is attended by 14 civil society organizations, universities, NGOs, and representatives of the Ministry of Public Health and Assistance. In addition to influencing public policies, they organize and carry out intersectorial projects at the national and international level, provide advice for migrants, and create awareness campaigns on the subject.

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?
