trument used in Brazilian municipalities (but not exclusively) is the Caravans of
Priorities. During these "caravans", the elected delegates visit the different areas
of the city to see the identified demands first-hand. This makes it possible for them to
visualise the different levels of need and above all gives greater legitimacy to
the technical criteria presented. It also allows the neighbourhood dele-gates to openup to the city in its entirety and to the needs beyond their neighbourhood.

costs of personnel, transportation and the production of communication materials ineach place. By way of example, the city of Porto Alegre (pop. 1.4 million) sets asideover US$ 250,000 annually for the implementation of its Participatory Budget.
This expense can easily be covered in poor cities through international co-operation. Unfortunately, at the present time, it can be observed that internationalresources are often accompanied by technocratic orientations "from above" andrequirements which may distort the local process and creative solutions of the citizensand local governments themselves.

Porto Alegre, Brazil
In addition to the Participatory Budget there are significant numbers of participatory democracy
mechanisms in the municipality, for instance: the Sectoral Councils (currently numbering 22) who-
se objective is to define policies and directives in their respective areas; 8 Regional Planning Fo-
rums in accordance with the management strategy of the Master Development and Environment
Plan; Sectoral Conferences and the Congress of the City which this year meets for the fourth ti-
me. (Case Study: Porto Alegre)
Santo Andre, Brazil
The Participatory Budget and the Future City Project are the principal channels. They have be-come national and international benchmarks, but it is important to point out that these are not the
only channels adopted by this administration. In the city there are also 17 Thematic Councils and
two Forums, a Theatre of the Oppressed (which addresses citizen participation using the enter-
taining language of theatre), the Citizen’s Network of Digital Inclusion, the Plant Maintenance
Councils, The Participatory Management of aquatic reserve areas, Public Hearings and Com-
plaint Hearings (ombudsman). (Case Study: Santo Andre)
Cordoba, Spain
Citizen participation in the Municipal Government of Cordoba is articulated through the following
citizen bodies, according to the Citizen Participation Guidelines of 1986: a) District Councils (14);b) Citizens´ Movement Council; c) Representatives in Municipal companies, foundations and
trusts; and d) other means established by the City as means of representation for sector-specific
organizations, such as unions and others.
The Citizens Movement Council, in a rather unique way, is conceptualised as being the point of
coordination and orientation of citizens´ movements, as well as the focal point of participation wit-
hin the municipality on issues relating to the whole city. As part of its latter role, it participates in
the Support and Follow-up Committee for the Participatory Budget. In all the Boards of the muni-
cipal utility companies and in the executive organs of the Municipal foundations and trusts, there
is a resident representative designated by the Citizens´ Movement Council. (Case Study: Cordo-

es. The links between the short and long-term56 perspectives are the delegates,
council members and representatives who act in both arenas. In Porto Alegre, for example, the councillors of the PBC are, at the same time, representatives (not the
only ones) of the Urban Master Plan Council. On the one hand, this allows them to
draw on immediate demands when debating about the future of the city, and on the
other, these same representatives/delegates conduct the discussions about the
Master Plan within the Participatory Budget Process.
If the role of the citizen is central, the ordering and integrating role of the local gov-
ernment should be valued. It is the responsibility of the public authority to create anintegrated system of participation which links diverse channels and spaces of debate
and in particular, long-term plans and the Participatory Budget.
Are there evaluation mechanisms or systems for the
Participatory Budget?There are very few, and even though there are incipient efforts 57, there is a clear
deficit in evaluation resources given the multiplicity of experiences in variousregions. The evaluation of 103 Brazilian58 experiences, the documentation of 25
international cases parting from a common model59 in the context of the Urb-al
Network 9, and a study on participation and PB in Europe are three initiatives which
use a common body of variables and criteria.

hance their legitimacy; technicians and public officials can improve the efficiency of
their work and its social meaning; international organisations can see that the
resources they contribute are better used; and citizens can contribute productively to
decision-making and local management.

promotes increased acceptance and use of the
principles of urban governance. The Campaign has
succeeded in initiating concrete activities aimed at
spurring policy change and enhancing organizational
capacities in more than 30 countries across the
world. To further translate urban governance
principles into practical measures, the Campaign has
developed a range of tools, which includes a
collection of resources on Participatory Budgeting.
The Urban Management Programme (UMP)
represents a major effort by UN-HABITAT and UNDP,together with external support agencies, to
strengthen the contribution that cities and towns in
developing countries make towards economic
growth, social development and poverty alleviation.
Over the past 18 years, UMP has been able to
provide a platform for partners to engage in work
related to emerging urban management themes.
The present Manual attempts to provide direct and
practical answers to the how, why, when and where
of implementing a Participatory Budget under thebest possible conditions.
