Map of Dreams for Vila Pompeia

The participatory contest "Map of Drems for Vila Pompeia" began with a collective funding campaign under the name of "A Pompeia Que Se Quer" (lit. "the Pompeia that we want"), which mobilized more than 200 people to support neighbors with the goal of developing neighborhood plan. Based on this experience, the Instituto Cidade Democratica launched an open call to transform the city of Vila Pompeia according to the preferences and initiatives of the community. The process consisted of 4 stages: 1) registration of proposals, 2) votes of support for individual proposals, 3) unification of similar or complementary proposals, 4) the winning proposals are awarded by the residents themselves. The full set of proposals, both those selected and winners and those that weren't selected, were later compiled in a document that represented the First Plan of the Vila Pompeia Neighborhood, which was then delivered to the local authorities to be part of the Governing Plan of the City.

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?
