Good Practices and Strategies for Violence Prevention of Northern Region
Good Practices and Strategies for Violence Prevention in three cantons of Costa Rica's northern borders with Nicaragua is a project executed by the NGO "FUNPADEM" within the framework of the Info-Segura Project, which is funded by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). The general goal of this initiative is to identify the good practices of violence prevention that stakeholders of the border cantons (Upala, Los Chiles and San Carlos) develop in cooperation with Nicaraguan partners, promoting a process of dialogue that allows the exchange of positive experiences and the formulation of Local Strategies for Violence Prevention. This process is carried out with the participation of the community, which attends the working sessions where the results of the research are discussed.
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?
