Active Citizenship Covid-19
The project "Active Citizenship Covid-19 - Eyes on Public Spending" is an initiative of Transparencia por Colombia, the national chapter of Transparency International. This organization, in collaboration with other civil society organizations located in different regions of the country, proposed to carry out an observation of the application of regional resources by the governments of seven states during the COVID-19 pandemic. The observation process is focused on public expenses and contracting, using both public and private data sources. Regular informative bulletins are published on the progress of expenses and the irregularities observed, as well as recommendations to make the management of resources more efficient to face the pandemic.
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?
