Civic Kitchen
Civic Kitchen is an initiative promoted by the Technical Body for Metropolitan Affairs of the Congress of the State of Jalisco that aims to increase citizen participation in defining the public agenda. Civic Kitchen promotes dialogue and gives citizens a voice so that their ideas and proposals become public policy initiatives and projects. This initiative allows citizens to make use of public spaces to hold workshops and forums where they can deliberate on projects that benefit them. An example of a project derived from this initiative is the Zapopan Community Park.
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?
