Argentinian Observatory on School Violence
The Argentinian Observatory on School Violence was created in 2004 with the aim of monitoring situations of violence in Argentinian schools. It is a joint initiative between the Ministry of Education and the National University of San Martín, with the support of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. The monitoring that the observatory carries out not only seeks to describe the phenomenon of school violence but also to identify its causes and characteristics in the various regions of the country, in addition to keeping a record of cases at the national level. Among the topics addressed are: coexistence, feelings of insecurity, social and subjective distress, teacher-student relations, the importance of the role of adults, institutional conditions that generate pedagogical authority and strategies for conflict-solving.
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?
