Description | The Chengdu municipal government devised participatory budgeting as a ‘top down’ strategy with the scope to promote village- level projects to empower local decision-making. Mayan Village became one of the pilot villages for implementing participatory budgeting village-level public service and social management due to its weak economic development and infrastructure. An allocation of 200,000 Yuan was provided by a two-tier financial management system of Chengdu and Qionglai for this process. | |
