The Participatory Budgeting Project

The Participatory Budgeting Project is an initiative that empowers citizens to directly influence how public funds are spent in their communities. It allows residents to propose and vote on budget priorities, ensuring their voices shape local government spending. This process fosters transparency, accountability, and civic engagement, enabling people to collaborate on projects that meet their community’s needs. By involving community members in decision-making, participatory budgeting aims to create more equitable and responsive public services, promoting a sense of ownership and investment in local governance.
