“…Second, to minimise power asymmetries and limit the potential co-optation of the process, we propose to develop practices such as self-regulation, already proved in similar processes as a participatory budget [19,[82][83][84]. This entails developing a participatory document that organises the rules of the process in all its steps and actions [84].…”

This study focuses on assessing collaborative governance from the perspective of power dynamics in a disadvantaged neighbourhood in southern Spain: Las Palmeras. Increasing global urbanisation in recent decades has exacerbated problems of segregation within cities, posing a major challenge to achieving healthy urban environments for harmonious coexistence. Public policies have struggled to address this challenge, particularly following the adoption of the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which have underlined the importance of fostering inclusiveness and sustainability in urban environments. In this context, collaborative governance has emerged as a prominent strategy for democratising the implementation of public policies in urban contexts. However, the efficacy of collaborative governance is hampered by the dynamics of power relations, which limits its effectiveness. The aim of this study is understanding how these dynamics mediate collaborative processes in urban regeneration contexts, an area little addressed so far. Through a case study and the systematisation of experiences, the study proposes strategic recommendations for managing these dynamics within collaborative governance. The insights drawn from this study can serve as a basis for better addressing urban challenges, thus fostering greater inclusiveness and sustainability in urban areas as well as offering valid lines for future research in the field.

“…PBs are based on the principles of transparency, publicity, clarity, access to information, institutional neutrality, the primacy of the collective interest, diversity, public debate, equality and non-discrimination, inclusion, efficiency, protection of personal data, and accountability. These principles constitute obligations for administrations and rights and guarantees for the residents participating in the process (Martinez-Sanchez, 2023). These processes contemplate the application of measures that, from a gender perspective, help achieve an inclusive participation of women and men to identify the priorities and needs of both (Laruelle, 2021).…”

Participatory budgeting has arisen as an interesting form of citizen participation in urban development and, thus, as a new way of exercising placemaking and grassroots democracy. In this article, we provide an analysis of projects in Lisbon (Portugal), Valencia (Spain), and Warsaw (Poland) with a focus on three key projects concerned with improving the public realm and their contribution to enhancing the network of public open spaces. Our guiding question is: What are the potential benefits of participatory budgeting to increase green spaces and urban governance? A comparison of the three cities’ participatory budgeting programmes provides an overview of their social and political goals and the contents that provide opportunities for citizens’ participation in decision-making. The cases of Jardim do Caracol da Penha (Lisbon), the Green Street Świętokrzyska (Warsaw), and the Green Plan for the Poblats Marítims District (Valencia) pave the way for a discussion on engagement, empowerment, and connectivity with the local communities through public spaces. Using participatory budgeting as a planning and political instrument at the municipal level, as the three cases show, can be a useful way to enhance and enrich the communities’ engagement with their environments. One aspect that emerged is the communication strategies implemented in the three cases. The analysis shows that the use of media and social networks to disseminate information and gather supporters for their ideas and this growth in political influence seems to be essential for participatory budgeting. The study is backed by desk work (comprehensive understanding of the local programmes) and field work to better identify the changes in loco.

La evolución del presupuesto participativo constituye un tema clave de estudio dado que es una de las innovaciones participativas de más larga trayectoria y de mayor expansión en los últimos veinte años a lo largo del mundo. Asimismo, España es territorio que se presta a la observación de los cambios en el presupuesto participativo, dado que fue uno de los países donde desarrolló con fuerza cuando comenzó a impulsarse en Europa. El objetivo del presente estudio es conocer las experiencias de presupuesto participativo en la actualidad en España, en términos del marco institucional de los procesos, las reglas de participación y los roles y posibilidades de acción ciudadana en las mismas. Para ello, se trabaja con datos de 297 presupuestos participativos municipales. Los resultados muestran una expansión notable del presupuesto participativo, aunque la vida media de las experiencias sigue siendo corta. Los presupuestos participativos presentan nuevas características en relación con estudios anteriores: la diversificación de las metodologías empleadas, el reducido peso de la participación ciudadana en su diseño o el intensivo componente digital. También se identifican rasgos de continuidad, como la condición vinculante de las decisiones ciudadanas o la necesidad del cumplimiento de determinados requisitos administrativos para poder tomar parte.
