</h3> <div class="accordion__content"> <p>Participatory budgeting gives the general public access to information on community projects and involves them in deciding how to allocate the available budget to address an identified issue or achieve the desired outcome.</p><p>Participation in budget allocation:</p><ul type="disc"><li>increases the public’s awareness of the risks involved in budgeting and the trade-offs required</li><li>affords them a level of accountability they do not normally have to own</li><li>provides an avenue for the community to contribute its knowledge and expertise to government decision making.</li></ul><p>Internationally, participatory budgeting has been used to allocate funds for different kinds of projects such as:</p><ul type="disc"><li>infrastructure maintenance and capital works projects</li><li>projects and services for young people and people with disability</li><li>projects for school services</li><li><a

type="disc"><li>Participatory budgeting was first developed in Brazil in the 1980s to establish democracy and public participation after years of military rule and economic hardship.</li><li>The format has predominantly been direct face-to-face engagement with people in communities led through the process.</li><li>Recently, participatory budgeting has also been delivered online, like <a href="https://pickmyproject.vic.gov.au" target="_blank">Pick My Project</a>, a Victorian government initiative delivered from mid-July 2018 until late 2020.</li><li>The online format can significantly

resources</strong>: A number of cost-effective online platforms can be purchased off-the-shelf.
