Neighborhood / Citizen Participation Boards
The Neighborhood Participation Boards / Citizen Participation Boards are municipal public spaces for associated management between community centers, neighborhoods, organizations and institutions of the jurisdiction, designed to allow the community to promote, propose and carry out projects to provide works, services and programs oriented towards local development. Likewise, the Boards seek to improve administrative decentralization, control the management of the state and improve on the Participatory Budget process. Internally, they are organized in three ways: Assembly, Thematic Commissions, and as a Coordinating Board. In this way we try to advance a model of community democracy for the administration of the City of Cordoba.
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?
