Demo PB Process

Participatory Budgeting (PB) is a democratic process in which community members directly decide how to spend part of a public budget. It’s a tool to empower everyone to make decisions about how funds should be spent in our communities. PB involves a series of steps in which community members brainstorm ideas, then they form committees to develop ideas into project proposals. Once the proposals are developed, the community is invited to vote on which projects to fund, and the projects selected get implemented in the community.
