Costa Rica Chapter for the Latin American Observatory on Human Trafficking
The Costa Rica Chapter for the Latin American Observatory on Human Trafficking was created in 2013 with the purpose of responding to the problems of trade and trafficking of migrants through the participation of public, academic entities and non-governmental institutions. This is, in part, achieved through the development of forums for discussion and the review of policies and the country situation. In addition, in order to achieve its objectives, the Center continuously and systematically evaluates the phenomenon of trafficking, periodically measuring the different responses to it. In turn, the Center seeks to follow up on the commitments made by the States in the field of human rights.
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?
