About
Have you ever wondered what sharing real decision-making power could look like within your collective? Or do you already use democratic practices internally, but want to turn those practices into budgeting action?
Join Participatory Budgeting Project for this upcoming introductory exploration of participatory budgeting (PB) practices to learn more about how you can expand the possibility of shared and democratic decision making within your collective.
While some may be well acquainted with PB for public or institutional budgets, this practice can also make your organization more equitable, inclusive, and effective. PBP has been working for a new number years on their step-by-step PB for Orgs Toolkit to help organizations develop a PB practice that meets their needs.
