Plan 32

In 2016, the civil organization Transparencia drafted Plan 32, a package of proposals meant to increase institutional capacity and strengthen democracy in Peru. The proposals are grouped in four categories: electoral reform, Congress performance, justice administration and transparency in the public administration. The plan was formulated in a participative space were lawyers, economists, academics, activists and business owners were consulted and deliberated in order to create the 32 proposals. After the plan was drafted it was discussed and approved by Transparencia?s General Assembly. With its approval, a campaign collecting signatures for its support started across the country. Within three months 56,000 signatures were collected. Plan32 was presented as a Law Bill before the Minister Council in February 2017. According to a follow up report, several of the proposals included in Plan 32 have become law bills, and some of them have been approved.
