Afro-Caribbean Cultural Identity Preservation Project
The Afro-Caribbean Cultural Identity Conservation Project was an initiative of the Ministry of Tourism, executed by the Panama Tourism Authority on the island Bastimentos. The project consisted of decorating and embellishing the island's architecture through painting, in order to promote Afro-descendant cultural tourism. For this purpose, homeowners on the island authorized government authorities to paint their homes, and the renovation work was carried out jointly by neighbors, residents of the area and representatives of government agencies.
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?
