Advisory Council on the Firearms Control Policy
The Advisory Council on the Firearms Control Policy is active in the context of the National Weapons Law Reform Project. It was created by Law, and allows different stakeholders and organizations of civil society to participate in the elaboration and monitoring of policies in the area. This strategy of advocacy of civil organizations seeks to join society with the authorities implementing the Project. The main participating organizations are the Institute of Comparative Studies in Criminal and Social Sciences and the Argentina Network for Disarmament, which also extends the program throughout the country, carrying out awareness and campaigns for dissemination.

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?
