About the service

What does the Participatory Budgeting Platform solve?

In most institutions citizen participation is squeezed into an annual survey and a complaint box. Yet from Barcelona to New York, major cities now steer part of their budget directly by citizen vote; participatory budgeting has become local democracy's most tangible tool.

The Participatory Budgeting Platform runs the process end to end: the municipality opens the period budget and rules, citizens propose projects for their neighbourhood, proposals pass technical screening, and ID-verified voting picks the winners. The critical difference comes after: the tender, construction and delivery stages of winning projects are tracked with progress bars on the same page — participation turns into accountability, not a one-off event.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions

How is voting secured?

Voting requires national-ID verification; one vote per person is technically enforced, votes are counted anonymised, and results are kept with auditable records.

How much of the budget should be allocated?

That is the municipality's call; global examples start with 1–5% of the investment budget. The platform is amount-agnostic — a small pilot works.

What happens to infeasible proposals?

During screening the relevant department attaches a feasibility opinion; eliminated proposals are published with their reasons — nothing disappears silently.

What if winning projects aren't built?

Every winner's stage is publicly tracked; delayed projects are visible on the board. Transparency is the platform's enforcement power.
