State Councils for Women's Rights
The State Councils for Women's Rights aim to promote state-level policies for women (with a gender perspective) that aim to eliminate prejudice and discrimination, including economic and financial ones. They should therefore serve to expand social control over such policies. The councils have female councilors that represent the government and civil society, and coordinate with the National Council for Women's Rights.
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?
