Dialogue Table for the Strengthening of the National Technical Secretariat of the Environment (SETENA)
The Dialogue Table for the Strengthening of the National Technical Secretariat of the Environment (Span. SETENA) is a space for citizen participation in which the public can contribute directly and actively to the dialogue, from anywhere in the country, in order to improve the work of the National Technical Secretariat of the Environment. This is achieved through the contribution with proposals and recommendations on the subject, according to the established central concept. Its purpose is to enrich national development policies in a sustainable manner with perspectives, inputs and proposals from the relevant social, political and economic stakeholders in the country. The process is led by the Ministry of Environment and Energy, and responds to the government's commitment to citizen participation in public management. All the information that is collected through this mechanism will become a valuable input that the current administration will take into account for the analysis of the challenges of this sector. Citizen participation is materialized, first, through an online registration and then, through effective participation in the promoted Roundtables.
