Summary

The present Manual of Frequently Asked Questions intends to respond in a direct and practical way to the general question of how best to implement a Participatory Budget. The Manual is a key entry point to a broader Participatory Budgeting Toolkit, which is based on a collection of four types of useful resources for all those interested in adopting and adapting Participatory Budgeting in a particular context.

These four components are closely inter-linked and have been organized in the following form:

a) Digital Library;

b) Set of technical and legal instruments;

c) City Fact Sheets; and

d) Resource Directory of people, organizations, contacts and websites.
