Résumé :

During the past few decades, decentralization efforts in México have coincided with efforts to democratize the administrative decision-making process. Adopted in 1988, the Programa Nacional de Solidaridad (National Solidarity Program; PRONASOL) required citizen participation in decisions involving the use of federal resources for regional development and poverty alleviation projects. In 1998, Section 33 of the Ley de Coordinación Fiscal (Fiscal Coordination Law; LCF) placed Social Infrastructure Funds (SIF) directly under the supervision of municipalities and retained the requirement that citi

Les plates-formes participatives en ligne sont devenues un moyen courant d'impliquer les citoyens dans la prise de décision publique, permettant une participation à plus grande échelle que leurs homologues hors ligne, à la fois en termes de nombre de participants et de répartition géographique. Cependant, le terme "plateforme participative" recouvre un large éventail de systèmes extrêmement différents, ce qui implique des différences dans les problèmes rencontrés par les administrateurs et les contributeurs des plateformes.

Résumé :

The city of Santa Cruz, Bolivia, has grown the last 40 years according to an urban plan. However, this urban planning process does not permit the citizen participation in public recreation planning.The Popular Participation Law approved in April, 1994, open new possibilities for citizen participation in public recreation planning in Santa Cruz. However, there are limitation in the implementation of the law.In order to correct those limitation the present study proposes basic criteria for popular participation in management of public recreational facilities. These criteria refer to delimitation

Résumé :

Continued citizen participation in the Vancouver Local Area Planning Program (L.A.P.P) is not a new issue. As early as 1973, Vancouver planners documented a commitment to not only produce a plan for a local area, but to initiate an ongoing process that would respond to area issues and facilitate continuous citizen input (Community planning Division, 1973, 10). However, no firm policy establishes continued, effective citizen participation in the Vancouver planning process. Presently, planning staff work with a Citizen Planning Committee (C.P.C.) to create a plan for a local area, but upon compl

The city district Old Havana that is on the World Heritage List because of its Spanish colonial architecture is undergoing a restoration project of great size.

Instead the Office is self-financed by the profits out of the 1,5 million annual tourists that visit the already, with its 63000 inhabitants, overcrowded Old Havana.

Résumé :

The water-related challenges facing humanity are complex and urgent. Although solutions are not always clear, involving the public in localised knowledge production and policy development is widely recognised as a critical part of this larger effort. Such public engagement is increasingly achieved through “citizen science”—a practice that involves non-professionals in scientific research and monitoring. Academic literature has recognised that, while citizen science is both important and necessary to strengthen environmental policy, its acceptance and successful implementation is a difficult go

Résumé :

Governments at central and sub-national levels are increasingly pursuing participatory mechanisms in a bid to improve governance and service delivery.

Despite the great international support and advocacy for participatory governance where citizen’s voice plays a key role in decision making of decentralized service delivery, there is a notable dearth of empirical evidence as to the effect of such

Such planning generally requires the active involvement of rural people. To accomplish this objective a model is constructed of how rural residents participate in planning.

However in Zimbabwe, the government has failed to fund most projects and it has created a gap for NGOs to provide most, if not all services in rural communities.

Latin American municipal governments have recently increased in significance due to widely-adopted decentralisation policies.
