The Participatory Budgeting Project is a nonprofit organization that supports participatory budgeting processes to enable residents to directly influence how public money is spent, primarily in the United States and Canada. It aims to deepen democracy, strengthen communities, and promote more equitable and effective public budgets by shaping the budgeting process, proposal selection, and funded projects through grassroots decision-making. The organization emphasizes expanding participation to include underrepresented groups and partnering with local organizations to ensure diverse voices are heard in budgeting decisions. Based in Brooklyn, New York, it operates within the civic and social sectors, focusing on empowering communities and transforming relationships between government and residents. The group describes itself as building real power over real money, transforming democratic practices, and addressing inequality by increasing inclusive participation and equitable budgeting outcomes.
