National Program of Judicial Facilitators
The national "Judicial Facilitators" program by the Supreme Court of Justice is a network of volunteers selected in each community and trained by the Judiciary. It aims to improve access to justice. Judicial facilitators cannot carry out jurisdictional activities, but they can direct people in their community to the appropriate justice services. In addition, they promote civic-legal formation and alternative conflict resolutions. It is worth mentioning that the mission of the program is also focused on including vulnerable groups and covers 78% of the country's municipalities.

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?
