National Forum on Convergence (FONAC)
The National Forum on Convergence (Span. FONAC) was created with the aim of establishing a system for monitoring and reporting on the progress of the implementation of the National Plans. For this purpose, the FONAC built a quantitative model that associates the fulfillment of progress indicators to the gaps identified in each region. Morevoer, it relates progress indicators to the contributions of each project executed, its achievements, and the national priority goals. The model allows for the impact evaluation of national and regional development. FONAC is composed of seven civil society representatives.
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?
