Its main goal is to facilitate a meaningful and useful sharing of knowledge among scholars from various European countries and the CEE region in particular. Participatory budgeting has its roots in Latin America, where it was introduced as a tool to empower marginalized or vulnerable groups that usually do not enjoy any proper voice in public decision-making processes. It is an innovation that is usually understood as a tool that supports democratization. However, it undoubtedly has broader managerial and financial implications from policymakers' point of view.
