The Coordinating Committee is made up of a representative from each of the commissions and its objective is to represent the interests of the citizens before the Mayor's Office and the Head of Government. The Commission meets every three months to give opinions on programs and policies, report social problems to the mayor's offices, propose solutions, and monitor citizen representation bodies, among other activities.
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?
