Popular Shared Budget
The Shared Popular Budget is an initiative of the Municipality of San Martín, whereby it allocates part of the budget to diverse areas of the city and invites neighbors to meet in neighborhood forums where they formulate the projects in which the funds will be invested. Although citizens do not decide the amount of money that will be invested to carry out the projects, they can decide through this mechanism which projects are a priority for their neighborhood.
