National Board for Dialogue in the Management of Disaster Risk Reduction
The National Board for Dialogue in the Management of Disaster Risk Reduction is a participatory space for debate and consensus between the public and private sector and civil society organizations. It targets the management and prevention of natural disasters, and is made up of a National Bureau, which meets twice a year, and four Working Commissions that occasionally meet to support, respond to and implement the work plans of the National Board. In the Hyogo Framework for Action and the Central American Policy for Comprehensive Risk Management (Span. PCGIR), the National Board agreed on a National Policy for Disaster Risk Reduction in Guatemala, which transformed the "public policies" into a risk approach.
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?
