Technological Audiovisual Poles
The Technological Audiovisual Poles program was framed in the provisions of the Audiovisual Communication Services Law, aimed at the creation of regional deliberative spaces of plural composition. They include various stakeholders: audiovisual cooperatives, social organizations affiliated to the sector, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), independent producers, television companies and local public bodies. The Poles are convened and coordinated by regional heads, represented by designated universities in each region. In these spaces, the central objective is the strengthening of content-production capacities for digital TV, based on the access, promotion and democratization of both the audiovisual production processes and the availability and access to the technologies necessary. With the aim of creating conditions for the federalization and digitization of audiovisual production, the Poles work around four central axes: equipment, training, research and development, and pilot schemes. In turn, the 9 regional Poles call for the formation of Nodes, similar spaces of sub-regional and local character. The diagnoses, decisions, recommendations and projects are then raised from the Nodes to the Regional Poles, and then to the Advisory Council of the Argentine Open Digital TV System.

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?
