Consultative Workshop for the Modernization Judicial Branch
The Supreme Court of El Salvador developed the Consultative Workshop for the Modernization of the Judiciary. With an inclusive strategy, the project consulted with stakeholders and included Salvadorans in the United States. Two consultation workshops were organized; one in El Salvador and one in Washington, DC. The first workshop included the participation of judges in El Salvador and was designed to gather information on their perceptions and priorities in relation to the reform and modernization of the administration of justice. The workshop also identified the need for follow-up consultations with Salvadorans living abroad.
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?
