Diagnosis of Rural Poverty and Public Policy Responses
The Diagnosis of Rural Poverty and Public Policy Responses is an initiative carried out by the Latin American Center for Rural Development (Span. RIMISP), with the support and participation of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and the International Development Research Center (IDRC, Canada). This project seeks to contribute to the improvement of subnational policies focused on rural poverty in several Latin American countries, including Ecuador. To this end, a Working Group on Rural Poverty was formed, made up of outstanding political, social and academic individuals, with the capacity for access to and dialogue with various public and private stakeholders. The report on Ecuador was published in November 2010. It detailed a series of actions and public policies to reduce poverty in Ecuador.
Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
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?
