Institute for Security and Democracy (INSYDE)
The Institute for Security and Democracy (INSYDE) is a civil society organization that aims to monitor and strengthen state security and justice institutions in Mexico. The Institute focuses on four themes: human mobility, criminal justice, security and police reform, and violence and media. INSYDE generates and publishes the results of its research, which focuses on assessing the country's situation with respect to these four topics. In addition, this institute works with other academic, governmental and civil institutions with the objective of designing and implementing tools that improve the functioning and promote accountability within public institutions. The Institute periodically publishes diagnoses, reports, and technical and methodological contributions.
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?
