Let's get to it
Manos a la Obra (lit. Let?s get to it) is a collaborative map created by a group of around 20 volunteers (professionals and students from the Department of Urban Studies and Planning at MIT and the Harvard Graduate School of Design.) This online platform allows citizens to offer and request help in the different areas affected by the earthquake in Puebla on September 19th, 2017. In addition to creating the interactive space, volunteers from the initiative check, monitor and coordinate the different forms of help.
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?
