Observatory of Justice
The Observatory of Justice was an initiative from 2019 that the civil association Transparencia created in order to follow the process of conformation of the National Justice Board. The National Justice Board is the autonomous organ responsible of naming, ratifying and destitution of all judges and prosecutors of Peru. The Observatory of Justice was dedicated to the monitoring of the entirety of the appointment process of the members of the National Justice Board, from the selection of candidates to their election. The monitoring and evaluation of the process was made public via the Transparencia online platform through reports and articles.
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?
