Hear the Voice, Make the Change

A guide to evaluate ‘mainstream’ participatory budgeting initiatives.

This briefing has been produced in response to Scotland’s Community Choices programme and aims to support public sector organisations wishing to evaluate their ‘mainstream’ Participatory Budgeting (PB) initiatives. The techniques outlined here are also applicable to PB grant making programmes. It complements guides to PB Grant-making and Mainstreaming PB produced in autumn 2016.

The ideas within this briefing are relevant to any organisation with an interest in knowing how to make a record of and then reflect on their PB work.
