"Septimazo al Detal" Hackathon

The Hackathon "Septimazo al Retail" was a marathon of learning and development of proposals to improve Carrera Séptima in the historic center of the city of Bogotá. It was a 7-day event in which citizens could register to form teams and submit proposals on new ways of using public space and buildings protected under cultural heritage. Participants had to choose between two thematic challenges: cultural activities in the public space, or new appropriations of historical spaces and buildings. Workshops and presentations were offered to develop the ideas. In November 2020, two interventions were awarded, one for each thematic challenge.

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?
