Program for the Access to Public Information for the North Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires
The Program for the Access to Public Information for the North Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires is a project initiated by residents of Vicente López, and it allows citizens to raise requests for access to information from officials of the Municipality. Likewise, the mechanism contemplates a line of activity tending to the monitoring of the Misdemeanor?s Court. For the formalization of these mechanisms, the neighborhood association held a series of public meetings that culminated in various regulatory proposals.
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?
