Permanent Gender Committee
The Permanent Gender Committee is one of the mechanisms promoted by the Office of the Human Rights Defender, and aims to promote the participation of representatives from sectors of civil society and public institutions. It is made up of nine organizations, and is coordinated by the Deputy Attorney General for the Defense of the Rights of Women and the Family. It also works with the Salvadoran Institute for the Development of Women (ISDEMU). The Bureau developed the Women's Human Rights Platform, and supported the legislative assembly in drafting statements, coordination of public events, workshops, and publishing of special reports. In addition, it reviews that national policies and legislative proposals contain a gender perspective.
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?
