Citizen Commission on Transparency (CCT)
The Citizen Commissions on Transparency (Span. CCT) were created with the aim of carrying out social audits during the municipal term. They constitute a space of citizen participation oriented towards monitoring the processes of public management in order to ensure the transparent execution of programs and projects, as well as the provision of public services in an effective and efficient manner. They are independent organizations of the Municipalities and their decisions are non-binding.

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?
