The Voice of Peruvian Internet
The Voice of Peruvian Internet is a crowdsourcing project devised by a civil society organization, in which about 500 people expressed their preferences and their opinion on national public policies regarding technology and connectivity. The objective of the platform, which was online for three months, was to create a space in which citizens could propose and decide the necessary reforms to improve the digital ecosystem of the country. The online consultation addressed issues of cybersecurity and open government, among others, and identified problems such as the lack of awareness from the side of citizens regarding the current legislation on those issues.
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?
