Summary

Participatory budgeting (PB) is process in which citizens decide how to allocate part of a municipal or public budget through a process of democratic deliberation and decision-making. Participatory budgeting allows citizens or residents of a locality to identify, discuss, and prioritize public spending projects, and gives them the power to make real decisions about how money is spent.

If more than one proposals drive to a project, these proposals must be grouped in a new proposal, and this proposal must be linked with the project (so one project is always linked to one proposal).
