In collaboration with the National Youth Council, and after nearly 1.5 years of prototyping and feedback with youths, we are proud to present to you Singapore’s first Participatory Budgeting toolkit, “Budget Boleh!”.

Learn how to involve the community in budgeting decisions and gain the confidence to use participatory budgeting as a tool to design with communities in Singapore through a fun and engaging team game.

We will be conducting a workshop where you can learn more about participatory budgeting and design, and be among the first to play the game!
