Homicide Monitor
The Homicide Monitor is a project started in 2015 by the Igarapé Institute with the support of several organizations, in order to showcase the distribution, dimensions and dynamics of homicidal violence, in an interactive and accessible way. To do this, the project developed an interactive website that shows homicide data and stats in many countries around the world, and offers analysis tools adaptable to specific interests or questions. Considering that the most violent countries are concentrated in the Americas, additional data and resources are offered for this region.
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?
