Antofa Starts Up (City of Antofagasta)

Antofa Starts Up is an initiative promoted by a group of organizations of corporate social responsibility and civil society, together with the Government Laboratory and the Municipality of Antofagasta. Through this project, the general public is invited to participate with specific innovative proposals to address local issues and improve social integration, renewable energy, education, recycling, migration, youth and childhood issues. This group of organizations proposes a series of innovation challenges throughout the year, people participate freely in these proposals, and finally, the organizers reward the winning proposals. In 2016, the project presented two specific challenges: "Building the region we dream of" and the other "Antofagasta Clean City". Both are within the project framework that makes up Antofa Starts Up.

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?
