Communal Territorial Planning in San Martín
The experience of the realization of an independent Community Territorial Order with three indigenous peoples (Kechwas, Shawis and Awajun) in the Department of San Martín was carried out through the use of diverse tools and participatory bodies. Through participatory mapping workshops, resources and development potential were identified from a perspective that respects the collective rights of indigenous peoples over territory and resources, their worldview and historical forms of occupation. These maps have served to elaborate a proposal of planning of the sustainable management of the communal territories of the Indigenous Peoples and the natural resources from a participatory, intercultural and gender approach, taking into account possible situations of conflict with the communities. The objective was to formulate a management tool for the communities in their negotiations with the state authorities regarding their problems, needs and proposals.
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?
