Citizen Participation Advisory Council - Civil Cabinet of the Presidency of the Republic
The Citizen Participation Advisory Council carries out workshops in different municipalities in Paraguay, which seek to promote citizen participation through inter-institutional efforts. Representing various ministries, the workshops seek to co-create solutions to local problems of participation in different communities, through the development of methodological tools and appropriate organizational structures. Together with the communities, the Advisory Committee establishes a diagnosis on citizen participation and, based on that, generates a plan of action in the medium and long term that encourages participation.

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?
