Political Dialogue in Honduras
The Political Dialogue in Honduras was an initiative implemented by the Honduran Government in collaboration with the United Nations. The Dialogue was designed as a response to the political crisis derived from the alleged fraud in the general elections of 2017 in Honduras, and aimed to seek solutions to tackle the crisis and promote political stability. The initiative consisted in the implementation of four working tables to discuss four main topics: the electoral process of 2017 and the presidential re-election, human rights, constitutional reforms and the strengthening of the rule of law, and electoral reforms. Representatives from the government and from the main national parties participated in the working tables, as well as opposition groups.
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?
