|
|
|
|
| Differently from Africa, the concept and practice of Participatory Budgeting was already widely understood and promoted in many countries. As so, the efforts concentrated in supporting the creation and strengthening of national PB networks in order to create spaces for policy makers and practitioners to share their innovations and challenges. In addition, the LAC PB Facility established working relation to key cities in the region, which became Participatory Budgeting Resource Cities in the Latin America network to provide information, inputs, expertise and other forms of support for networking purposes. |   Brazil |  Porto Alegre |  Peru |  Villa El Salvador |  |  Belo Horizonte |  |  Jesus Maria |  |  Gravatai |  |  Ilo |  |  Santa Maria |  Colômbia |  Pasto |  |  Santo André |  |  Samaniego |  |  Diadema |  |  Barrancabermeja |  |  Guarulhos |  |  Medellin |  |  Sao Leopoldo |  |  Soacha |  |  Recife |  Argentina |  Bella Vista |  Ecuador |  Cotacachi |  |  Rosario |  |  Cuenca |  Uruguay |  Montevideo |  |  Azogues |  Honduras |  Copan Ruinas |  |  Esmeraldas |  El Salvador |  San Salvador |  |  Taisha |  Venezuela |  Caroni |  |  Chimborazo |  Bolivia |  Cochabamba |  |  Pichincha |  |  |
