Good Practices and InnovATIONS in Public Governance hand experience working with the Regional Council and influencing the processes of a legislative assembly. Youth in the Law Hall benefits the government, too, by exposing government officials to the views of constituents whose voices often go unheard. Replicability and Sustainability The low costs of this initiative and the support it has garnered from schools and public officials make it readily sustainable. It can also be easily replicated elsewhere. The Piedmont Region has already received numerous requests for information about the project from other European governments—local, regional and national. Youth in the Law Hall aims to acquaint lawmakers with the concerns and needs of young citizens, while it educates students on the mechanisms of democracy and helps them become active citizens of tomorrow. The project demands commitment, dedication and some funding for the students’ activities, but, the rewards are worth the investment. Lessons Learned Involving citizens in governmental activities at a young age is a successful way to form more-aware and more-engaged citizens. Since the start of the project, secondary schools have continued to participate enthusiastically. This steady support indicates that students and their teachers are concerned about political life in the region and want to participate in government. The key ingredients for the success of Youth in the Law Hall are the commitment and dedication of the participants and organisers.

Description A programme for sustainable and integrated regional development based on participatory governance. Summary In 2000, as part of Brazil’s effort to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, the Government of the State of Bahia and the Federal Government initiated a sustainable and integrated regional development programme. The aim was to create new participatory decision-making mechanisms that would foster the social and economic integration of disenfranchised populations in the Lower South region, so as to advance human, social and economic development and environmental sustainability. This initiative, which rapidly resulted in tangible results for the eradication of poverty and social exclusion, mainly focused on the decentralization of decision-making mechanisms, the creation of private-public partnerships and the establishment of a new legal framework more favourable to citizen engagement. The Problem The Pratigi Environmental Protection Area is located to the south of Bahai, the capital of Salvador, in a region referred to as the “Lower South”. This district was characterized by deep environmental and socio-economic imbalances. In addition to poverty, the inhabitants experienced inequality and social exclusion. Economic activity was essentially agriculturally based and dependant on the use of primitive, inefficient farming methods. Agriculture, therefore, did not reliably provide adequate living conditions for the resident population. In addition, the farming methods used contributed to the progressive destruction of the forests in Mount Atlantic, caused great damage to the flora and fauna of the area, and seriously harmed the water system, which was one of the region’s most important treasures. Social exclusion deprived the inhabitants of access to education, health and nutrition and contributed to perpetuating their poverty. These circumstances led many to move 147
