Guerrilla Handbook for Public Servants

The Guerrilla Handbook for Public Servants is a collaborative document resulting from a process of deliberation on collected contributions, with the purpose of promoting individual and collective improvements in the daily work life of public employees. To this end, workshops were organized and online templates were enabled in which voluntary collaborators could group proposals around 6 central axes: vocation of service; innovation and excellence; collaboration and fraternity; recognition; empowerment; and, proposals for change. These proposals were then evaluated by a team of representatives of civil society organizations and private institutions sponsoring the initiative, who ultimately published the document entitled "Guerilla Handbook". These organizations also wish to carry out a review and launch an updated version of this manual on an annual basis. To this end, new forms are also online where any registered user can leave comments, inspirational content and contacts with other initiatives already under way.

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?
