The present document has for as main objective to identify the mechanisms of citizen participation recognized by the state of Nicaragua in that sense, it establishes the way how the state defines and creates those mechanisms. Also, describes the setting of existing instruments in the subject in the American Central country, last, it identifies specific cases which they have been used as a mechanism of citizen participation. The method applied was qualitative, through the exegetic legal method, carrying out a review of the national regulations with relation to the establishment of the mechanisms of citizen participation, as well as their participation. It is concluded that, although there is a normative framework on citizen participation that is not in line to the reality of the country, however, there has been a slight increase in the involvement of individuals in public decisions since the entry of the law on citizen participation in 2003.
