Zone-based Coordination Boards
The Zone-based Coordination Boards are an initiative implemented by Uruguay?s Ministry of Social Development (MIDES) in which periodic meetings are organized between neighbors, local organizations and representatives of technical bodies in different areas of the country. The aim of the meetings is to identify the main local problems to find and propose joint and shared solutions between the different actors. These meetings are open to anyone who wishes to participate, and are coordinated by the MIDE?s National Direction for Land Management.

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?
