Young Protagonists Program
The Young Protagonists Program is developed by Entre Ríos' Provincial Council for Children, Adolescents and the Family. Its purpose is to encourage citizen participation, encouraging the youth to participate in deliberative spaces in which they can express their needs, formulate projects and get involved in community activities. This is intended to help young people acquire civic education and skills. The methodology that leads to youth participation is developed by civil society organizations. Any civil society organization interested in participating in the program is welcome to do so.
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?
