Citizen Consultation: the Chile that we want
The Citizens' Consultations The Chile We Want is an initiative of the Government of Chile, which seeks to learn about the concerns, needs, recommendations and priorities of citizens regarding public policy. The final purpose is to use this information as an input for public policy design. The initiative invites citizens to fill in an online form, which inquires into the aforementioned areas. Once the forms have been submitted, the Ministry of Science processes the data to generate useful information for decision making at the government level.

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?
