Delegation Assemblies (Municipal Planning Tijuana 2011-2013)

The Delegation Assemblies (Municipal Planning Tijuana 2011-2013) were organized by the 20th Town Hall of the municipality. Several citizen assemblies were held across all municipal delegations. More than 3295 citizens contributed their opinions to identify the most pressing needs of the city. The objective was that the population could express their opinions for the formulation, implementation and evaluation of the plans and programs to be implemented. The proposals received were systematized, classified and analyzed by specific type in order to produce a working scheme. Its technical and financial feasibility was determined in order to identify the level of government responsible for its care, such that the Municipality could manage, before other orders of government, the requests that exceeded its field of competence or financial ability.

?

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?
