A couple of Resources on Participation

Oct 22, 2007

In response to some recent requests, I am posting here a couple of resources for thinking about participation. One is the article by myself, Patrick Heller, and Marcelo K. Silva, called Making Spaces for Civil Society.. Also, a course on participatory democracy and community development I taught last Spring at MIT. There's also a nascent wiki on some of those themes that we never finished: www.urban-democracy.wikispaces.com.

Participatory Budgeting in Chicago

 

Since the beginning of 2009, we have worked with Alderman Joe Moore and community leaders to launch the first participatory budgeting process in the US, with the Alderman's $1.3 million ward budget.
