Laboratory of Territorial Environmental Innovation for Peace

The Territorial Environmental Innovation Laboratory for Peace was an initiative of Redprodepaz, Universidad Santo Tomás, the Alexander von Humboldt Institute, and the company E3 Ecology, Economics and Ethics. The purpose of the laboratory was for participants to acquire knowledge, exchange experiences and identify challenges and opportunities to promote social, productive and environmental sustainability in their territories. More than 50 people from Redprodepaz's development and peace programs and its networks of settlers from different regions of the country participated in the five-day laboratory. The participants developed prototypes of innovation in territorial environmental management, which were presented to a jury, who gave them feedback, and the organizing entities offered the participants support to facilitate the project's implementation.

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?
