Participatory Management in the Public Policies of HIV-AIDS

The municipal program for Participatory Management in HIV/AIDS Policies, carried out by the Municipality of San Martín, seeks to apply an integral approach of respect and recognition to sexual, cultural and civil rights diversity in the process of planning and management of public policies. To this end, it carries out an HIV prevention strategy in a co-managed way with citizens, which establishes co-decision mechanisms and collegiality, in order to institutionalize participation and give citizens control over the operationalization of policies. The Program encourages people with HIV / AIDS, sex workers, health promoters and drug users to be involved in prevention activities, bringing their knowledge of the territory and personal and direct experience. In addition, efforts were concentrated in the construction of territorial management teams in the Primary Health Care Centers (CAPS) of the neighborhoods.

?

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?
