Participatory Budgeting (PB) can play a crucial role in helping to deliver genuine localism by offering people a direct say in how money is spent in their towns and parishes. This workshop will offer participants the opportunity to explore:
- how PB is already working at neighbourhood level
- how PB can enhance neighbourhood planning practices
- how 'local PB' can be scaled up
- how evolving PB initiatives can mesh effectively with the current policy agenda around neighbourhood budgets, open public services and local empowerment in general.
