Legislation Regarding the Regulation of Participatory Budgeting Experiences
An edit establishes the PB in Kinshasa and Bukavu, as well as in the local level regulations (45ETD).
Outstanding Innovation
The participation of civil society in the entire budget process at both national and local levels.
Principal Tendencies Detected
- Increase in the participation rate of women in the PB process (26% in 2017 to 30.56% in 2018);
- The first year (2017) the implementation of projects was more oriented towards administrative and communal priorities. However, the last two years (2018 and 2019) have been characterized by the implementation of projects aimed to the basic needs of the population.
Other Information
- Absence of legislative bodies at the local level;
- Non-elected local authorities (designated by the President of the Republic).
