Citizen Participation Unit of the Chilean Antarctic Institute
The Citizen Participation Unit of the Chilean Antarctic Institute is a body whose main objectives are to promote mechanisms for citizen participation in the stages of formulation, design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the policies and programs promoted by the service, while seeking to promote the strengthening of civil society in the field of competence of the service, as well as of citizenship in general, through the provision of information for the performance of their functions and the promotion of partnership with peers and the state itself. This Unit was created in August 2015 within the framework of Law 20.500 for Citizen Participation and it directly depends on the Chief of Service.
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?
