Uruguay Digital Agenda
The "Uruguay Digital Agenda" is the guideline document for public policies on technology and communication in Uruguay. It outlines the objectives and measures to be adopted, while evaluating past achievements and the effectiveness of policies adopted in the past. So far, four Agendas have been approved in the country: the first two (2006-2008 and 2008-2010) sought to lay the institutional foundations for digital government; the third (2010-2015) developed measures for the expansion of digital policy; the fourth and current agenda (2020) advances the digital transformation of the country based on the principle of equity. Public and private sectors, academia, civil society and the technical community participate in drafting these documents.

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?
