Transparent Panama
Transparent Panama is an initiative implemented by several civil society organizations with the support of the Panama Chapter of Transparency International and aims to monitor the public administration?s compliance with its transparency obligations. To promote government accountability, this initiative is divided into six sections that monitor: transparency and access to online information, corruption allegations, requests for information and public data banks, campaign promises on transparency, municipal transparency, and open data. Transparent Panama publishes reports with the findings and results of its monitoring activities in order to keep citizens informed about progress and setbacks in transparency and accountability in the country.
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?
