Visible Pre-trial
Visible Pre-Trial is a digital initiative implemented by the civil society organization "Guatemala Visible" with the aim of promoting the rule of law and transparency regarding the selection processes within the Justice System in Guatemala. Through a web portal, this initiative monitors and follows up on cases of corruption and illegal activities that reach the Justice System and are committed by public officials. Through the compilation of information and publication of data, citizens can follow up on what is happening within the judicial system. The initiative also provides information to train citizens on justice issues. In addition, through this initiative, proposals for reforming the law have been presented and made visible.

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?
