Territorial Meetings
The Territorial Meetings are open, plural and democratic spaces in which civil society organizations and citizens of a Department, Region, Province, Municipality or Native Indigenous Territory can participate. They are convened by the Chamber Commissions or Departmental Brigades to propose Law initiatives, deliberate on matters of common interest, express demands and opinions, generate consensus and effectively influence the work of the Plurinational Legislative Assembly. The law stipulates that citizen requests for deliberation in terms of legislation, supervision and management must be considered and treated in a mandatory manner by the corresponding Commissions or Brigades.

Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?

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?
