Associated Management and Intersectorial Networks for the Integrated Management of the Patagonian Coast

The Associated Management and Intersectorial Networks for the Integrated Management of the Patagonian Coast is an area made up of different stakeholders from the community and civil society organizations that initiated a participatory process to solve the pollution problem in the town of San Antonio Oeste. Initially, the space was powered by researchers from the Institute of Marine Biology and Fisheries of San Antonio Oeste, CONICET researchers, and pediatricians and toxicologists, as well as members of the pollution and public participation areas of the Natural Patagonia Foundation. The initiative is based on the idea that it is possible to improve management and establish agreements between government and society, if the social fabric is strengthened.

?

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?
