Voices Against Violence: Data speak
Voices against Violence is a digital citizen observatory that monitors and publishes data on various types of gender-based violence against women in Nicaragua. It is led since 2016 by the civil society organization Catholics for the Right to Decide and the academic Center for Studies and Information about Multiethnic Women (CEIMM), from the University of the Autonomous Regions of the Nicaraguan Caribbean Coast. Besides the work of the Observatory?s researchers, the observatory allows for any citizen?s participation by reporting cases of violence through their online platform and by including victim?s testimonies related to the cases published.
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?
