Participatory Budgeting Charter for Scotland
As participatory budgeting grows in Scotland a lot of work has gone into developing a new charter for PB. The charter was released on the 27th June 2019. It lays out the defining features that underpin high quality PB in Scotland.

The charter’s seven features show what needs to be considered to make sure participatory budgeting is:
