Posadas: Participatory Budgeting

Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal


Posadas Participatory Budgeting has been running since 2016 and is currently in its tenth consecutive year. This mechanism of direct democracy, established in the city's Organic Charter, consolidates and strengthens the relationship between the state and civil society, promotes the efficiency and transparency of the allocation of public funds, mobilizes municipal actions and management through citizen participation, generates democratic participation through debate, the exchange and consensus of ideas and promotes the role of residents in the strategic and territorial development of the city.

Currently, Posadeños can propose ideas, vote on projects and follow up on them both in person and virtually, through the platform posadasparticipa.com.ar and social networks. The tool currently has three areas of intervention:

  • Infrastructure: includes projects such as squares, parks, lighting, speed bumps, pedestrian crossings, signage, curb cuts, street improvements and improvements to urban facilities.

  • Environment and Sustainability: proposes interventions such as environmental restoration and conservation (green corridors and areas), community urban gardens, circular economy projects, ecopoints and ecological stations.

  • Culture and Education: proposes the establishment of fairs, the enhancement of historical and cultural sites, artistic interventions (muralism, mosaics, graffiti, sculpture and monuments) and the promotion of community activities oriented towards training, learning and sports.

In each annual edition, the Participatory Budgeting Posadas receives around 200 proposals that are subjected to feasibility analysis and then go on to the voting stage. Each year 11 projects are selected as winners, one for each municipal delegation (territorial subdivision of the city of Posadas). Finally, we can highlight that on average 16,000 citizens participate during the project selection process, both in person and virtually, thus facilitating the full participation of citizens.
