Loma's Young Parliamentarian
Lomas' Young Parliamentarian is a program created in 1993, which consists of inviting students from the city' s high schools to debate and formulate policies in the Deliberating Council. The subjects to be discussed by the students are, mainly but not exclusively, youth policies, although the young parliamentarians can debate any topic of their interest. The projects that result from these meetings are then presented to the Deliberating Council for further discussion.
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?
