2016-2019 Development Plan - Medellin is counting on you

The Medellín Development Plan 2016-2019 is an instrument that establishes the lines for action and the guiding principles for the public management of the city. It was prepared by means of a participatory process at the initiative of the Mayor's Office, which convened 14 citizen meetings with the community, attended by about 7000 participants. In addition, another 50 sectoral meetings were held with sectors of civil society and representatives of the economy, unions, production, to advance their proposals on the development of the city. In addition, a meeting was held with 240 children. With the inputs produced in these meetings, a proposal for a Development Plan was prepared, which was submitted to comments and feedback through 21 meetings with citizens and through digital channels.

?

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?
