Mechanism for monitoring and evaluating the Human Rights Program of the Federal District

The Mechanism for monitoring and evaluating the Human Rights Program of the Federal District is an inclusive and comprehensive tool that proposes solutions through strategies, action, deadlines and responsible units, based on a human rights approach in legislation, public policies, access to justice and the budget, to ensure the full enjoyment of the human rights of the people who live and work in Mexico City. It is integrated by the Monitoring and Evaluation Committee of the Human Rights Program of the Federal District, participation spaces for the follow-up of the Program and the Executive Secretary. Although the Committee's views, observations, recommendations or proposals are not binding, they should be taken into account by the executing agencies of the Program.

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?
