Colombia in Action
Colombia in Action was a platform that operated between 2010 and 2013 in order to create spaces of participation so that citizens, organizations and the State could work together to build a country of social prosperity, zero poverty and reconciliation. Through the platform, stakeholders could send ideas as well as vote for those considered the best of the issues raised. As a result, more than 200 ideas and 7000 votes were received from solutions to poverty and reconciliation.

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?
