The Participatory Budgeting Project (PBP) is a nonprofit organization that empowers people to decide together how to spend public money, primarily in the US and Canada. We create and support participatory budgeting processes that deepen democracy, build stronger communities, and make public budgets more equitable and effective. Building on decades of experience around the world, we understand participatory budgeting (PB) as a democratic process in which local people directly decide how to spend part of a public budget. We approach our work in three main ways: We build real power over real money. We develop processes that let people make real decisions, moving beyond consultation. We facilitate grassroots democratic decision-making over: - The design of the budgeting process - What proposals go on the ballot - What gets funded We transform democracy. We work to rebuild the relationship between government and the people. We change how government works and how people can engage.
