Inclusive Recicling
The Healthy Cities initiative emerged in 2002 as an initiative to create an inclusive, sustainable and formal recycling chain in Peru. The initiative promotes the recognition of recyclers and encourages the grouping and integration to public and private systems of solid waste management. Additionally, Healthy Cities carries out environmental awareness and education campaigns on waste separation. Thanks to the work of this initiative, through deliberative tables with members of the federal government, the law that recognizes and regulates the activities of recyclers was passed in 2009
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?
