Citizen Electoral Watch
The Citizen Electoral Watch was an initiative implemented by different civil society organizations with the aim of monitoring, overseeing and documenting irregularities during the December 2015 National Assembly deputies' election process. The initiative implemented channels to receive complaints about irregularities and human rights violations committed during the electoral process. Citizens were able to report their complaints by phone, sms, Whatsapp, Twitter, email, or through the initiative's platform. The complaints collected were verified by more than 282 citizen observers for the subsequent publication of a report on the electoral process.
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?
