Zamoranos Funds
The Zamoranos Funds are systems of cooperatives or self-managed agricultural communities that promote education and encourage a sustainable and community rural development. They grant the landless rural poor representation and field management. The Land Law of the government of Hugo Chávez granted legal status in these instances to exploit nationalized lands. The ultimate objective was to guarantee production, autonomous sustainability and food sovereignty.
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?
