Participatory design to improve housing conditions
The participatory design for housing improvement was implemented by the NGO Habitat for Humanity Argentina, with support from Samsung, in order to identify the needs and priorities of local residents and use this information as input to design interventions aimed at improving housing conditions in the Quebracho area. Participants were selected using a predefined methodology to ensure adequate representation of different social groups, such as women, youth and indigenous peoples.
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?
