    This participatory process started in August 2003 in a small town of the Salento area, on the Eastern-most tip of Italy. The final objective of this project was to carry out an Integrated Urban Regeneration Project among neighbor towns in order to revive a vast decaying rural area called the “Paduli” through the active participation of residents, people coming from other parts of Italy, professionals from different areas of expertise, local associations, institutions and Town Administrations.

    Orígenes

    En Rosario, en medio de una de las más grandes crisis argentinas, en mayo de 2002, el poder ejecutivo municipal tomó la decisión de convocar por primera vez al Prespuesto Participativo (PP) , en un contexto normativo no del todo favorable porque, en principio, los derechos políticos consagrados en la Constitución Nacional, en la Constitución de la Provincia de Santa Fe y en la Ley Orgánica de Municipalidades de la Provincia de Santa Fe, limitan la participación política directa de los ciudadanos; y además porque en Santa Fe no existe autonomía municipal.
