Full textAbstract:
Traditional approaches to helping developing countries have often played down human development in favor of production of physical and economic resources. It is on this premise that L. David Brown presents a case for the combined use of people-centered development and participatory research as a tool for maximizing local human resources to deal with local concerns. In building his case, Brown defines participatory research as a legitimate form of inquiry, drawing some distinctions between it and more traditional forms of research. He illustrates his point with a brief discussion of a research project that involved farmers from several villages in India.

Participatory planning holds important lessons for improving local government capabilities and responsiveness, but overall procedural regulations and statutory frameworks make its relevance for participatory IT development often just a matter of compliance. Developing analytical visualisations to support local government faces significant challenges because of the complexity and uncertainty about long-term benefits. We designed the process and local government staff understood their participation in an organised process. After each segment and the programming implementation, a new version of the software integrates improvements for participants.The participation process involved staff from ultimately 18 local governments. Participation became a verb describing the process that informed the directions to which we took up local government input.

The study aims to analyze community-based tourism development at Pantai Kuako, Maluku. It seeks to enhance community engagement, identify local potentials, promote cultural richness, and increase environmental awareness. Additionally, it aims to boost tourist visits, local income, and community participation in tourism development programs. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method to comprehend individuals' experiences in community-based tourism development at Pantai Kuako. Data are gathered from both secondary and primary sources, including government policy documents and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) involving 20 skilled informants. Data analysis follows Miles and Huberman's (2014) approach, involving data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The analysis findings emphasize the significance of Community-Based Tourism (CBT) in fostering sustainable and inclusive tourism development. CBT strengthens the local economy, empowers communities, preserves culture, and promotes environmental responsibility. At Pantai Kuako, tourism development progresses through initial, intermediate, and advanced stages, with tailored strategies for each stage.

The aim of the study is to identify some barriers to strengthening direct citizen participation in Local Development Funds, a mechanism to involve local people at the decision-making level by evaluating public participation. The IAP2 Public Participation Spectrum, developed by the International Association for Public Participation was used in the study. This study will contribute to explaining citizens' participation level in LDF. The results may suggest potential legislative and structural changes for the fund and defining new community social worker roles in Mongolia. Furthermore, the results will clarify what actions are needed for sub-administrative units to increase citizens’ participation.

Purpose – Rural entrepreneurship development and employment generation are fundamental to enhancing local-level progress and transformation. Achieving gainful employment in rural communities contributes immensely to the realisation of the potential of people living in remote communities. The purpose of this paper is to present a ten-stage practical approach for enhancing rural entrepreneurship development as a major driver of local community transformation and development. Design/methodology/approach – The action research was preceded by a preliminary study, which identified some crucial factors associated with the success of rural entrepreneurial activities in rural Lagos, Nigeria. The research, which is an offshoot of the earlier field survey, was designed to engage viable community-based organisations (CBOs) in Ikorodu, Epe, Badagry and Lekki communities for the implementation of context-specific rural entrepreneurship development projects through the provision of “non-serviceable” revolving loans. Findings – Successful funded rural entrepreneurs and CBOs served as veritable models for driving entrepreneurship development and employment promotion in rural Lagos, Nigeria. Projects funded included artisanal fisheries, barbering salons, piggeries and snail production. Practical implications – The projects which generated employment opportunities for rural youths and other able-bodied community members serve as a strategy for lifting people out of poverty. The action research was designed to inform rural development policy in Nigeria and other similar economies in the south. Originality/value – The study outlines a step-by-step process of entrepreneurship development project implementation.

Planning process digitization is widely used in Indonesia’s national and regional development. However, the local economic development, characterized by participation and empowerment, has not matched the implementations. This study argues that the participatory planning process for local economic development should be standardized and digitized. The argument is based on the results of the literature regarding development stages, procedures, the characteristics and cycles of information system designs, and various digitizing participatory planning practices in various countries. In-depth interviews were conducted with local economic development planners/facilitators and other parties involved in planning, such as information system analysts and designers. The results showed that the stages and instruments in the participatory local economic planning process could be standardized and digitized. However, digital systems cannot replace all stages due to the varied contexts of action plans’ problems.

To date, the promotion of local development of the territorial communities by means of the financial policy tools is one of the priority directions of scientific research not only in Ukraine, but also throughout the world. The article presents the results of the study of the impact of the participatory financing (attraction of the financial resources of community members, central and local budgets and the international donors) on the social capital of the territorial communities of Sumy region on the basis of the results of two phases of the project “Community-based Approach to Local Development”, which has been implemented in Ukraine by the United Nations Development Program since 2007. The main purpose of the article is to confirm the hypothesis that the participatory financing contributes to the social mobilization of the community residents, which leads to the activation of the “dormant” potential of collective actions and the desire of people to help themselves, as well as to improve some indicators of social capital. The difference-in-differences method and the multivariate regression analysis were used for the study. According to the results of the study, the characteristics of social capital, such as (anti)paternalism, the presence of traditions in community, involvement in social activities, collective action and cooperation are the most affected by the impact of participatory financing.

Over the past two decades, participatory development programs that emphasize local control and decision-making have become more common around the globe. Such initiatives respond to the thought-provoking critiques of the discourse and practice of "development" that have emerged since the 1990s. Critics have argued, for example, that the development industry promotes a paternalistic attitude that sees Western standards as the benchmark against which to measure the "Third World" (Escobar 1995), privileges donor priorities over local needs, and uses aid to grow government and NGO bureaucracies rather than directly assisting community members (Ferguson 2006). It sees recipients of aid as an undifferentiated mass of underdeveloped subsistence farmers (Lewellen 2002). Participatory development programs are one response to the need for a new paradigm in community development that empowers locals while avoiding the pitfalls of "philanthropic colonialism."

Abstract Participatory approach is useful to clarify local interests, and improve planning activities. This paper aims to evaluate local interests change and make improvements of rural development planning activities as a response. Participatory approaches were used to make rural development planning in 2007. According to the planning activities in 2007, implementation of plans and local developing requirements were tested from local perspective in 2012. Comparing local developing requirements in 2007 and 2012, local interests changes were clarified and used to advise planning activities improvements. Wangzhuang village, Hebei province, China, was chosen as the case study. The results suggest that local preference was helpful to clarify planning goals. Conflicts between different stakeholders’ interests were mainly about planning activities related to local daily life. Local interests showed a fast changeable character in a short term. These interests generally had a stable requirement on agriculture production improvement, while changed in other aspects during local community development. Participatory approach efficiently identified local interests priority and developing requirements change with a low cost. Then advised planning activities improvements consistent supported local sustainable development. We argue that taking planning activities improvements in response to local interests change through participatory approach could efficiently stimulate rural development.

Participatory planning is widely used worldwide as a tool of involving citizens in the processes of urban development, and it has also become more popular in Russia. The projects in Russia are implemented using foreign practices of participatory planning, thus there are N theoretical and methodological bases being developed. As a result, the involvement of citizens in the processes of urban development lacks in quality. This paper is devoted to organizing the participatory practices in the design of outdoor areas on the example of Saint Petersburg. The goal of the study is to create unified rules of organizing participatory planning in Russia. The methodology is based on a systematic approach to the assessment of the outdoor areas quality, evaluation of citizens’ readiness to participate in participatory design and assessment of the availability of the projects implementation in this field. The assessment of the outdoor areas quality was conducted with a method of a quality rating of a living environment. The evaluation of citizens’ readiness was based on a survey of the territory users. The method of the expert interview was used to assess the availability of the participatory planning projects implementation. The research results are formulated as recommendations for organizing the practices of participatory design in Russia. The following conclusions were made: the implementation of the recommendations provided for organizing the practices of participatory planning would increase the quality of outdoor areas and decrease the number of conflicts between stakeholders. Moreover, it would help in creating the local community, where the participants go through the transformation from the passive user to the active designer of the area.

This study examines CSR programs for mitigating forest and land fires in Riau Province carried out by the private sector, namely PT Pertamina Refinery Unit II Sungai Pakning through a participatory development communication approach. This research was conducted in the community assisted by CSR of PT Pertamina (Persero) Refinery Unit II Sungai Pakning located in Sungai Pakning Village, Bukit Batu District, Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province. This research method uses qualitative methods by collecting data through participant observation. The results of this study indicate that the participatory development communication approach carried out by PT Pertamina (Persero) Refinery Unit II Sungai Pakning CSR in carrying out forest and land fire mitigation activities is carried out through four stages of participatory communication namely heteroglosia, polyphony, dialogue and carnival. These four stages of participatory communication are supported because of the still close communitarian tradition and the enactment of deliberative communication in the decision-making process at the local level. In this study it was also found that the role of local leaders as opinion leaders was still needed in conveying important information. The role of local leaders is not merely an informal symbol, but also an influential party in determining the diversity of the community, mediators in public discussions and dialogues, and guards of local customs that are still held by the community. Therefore, the participatory communication approach based on the four characters mentioned earlier is important to involve the role of local leaders so that the messages communicated can be more optimal.

In recent years, negative trends have been observed in Latvia in connection with society's reluctance to get involved in political processes and, therefore, also in state and local government administration. The number of voters who voted in the 2017 local government elections in the amount of 50.39% was assessed as an alarming indicator. In the municipal elections of 2021, when only 34.01% of eligible voters voted, the result causes alarm. The results of the elections and studies show that there is alienation of the population from the government and the current trust in the state administration is very low. Citizens do not believe that they can influence the development and management processes of the state and local governments. One of the reasons for distrust is the lack of feedback from the municipality or the inability or unwillingness of the municipality to solve the problems raised by the residents. The need to ensure public participation is defined in several regulatory acts of the Republic of Latvia. Residents' involvement is a long-term process, in which the prerequisite is the building of trust between the municipality and the residents. If citizens have the opportunity to determine how a part of the municipal budget will be spent, municipalities will promote democratic values and the opportunity to participate in the decision-making process. Participatory budget in local governments is one of the ways to try to bring citizens closer to local government. By 2025 in Latvia, it must be included in the municipal budget. The aim of the work is to find out the readiness of Latvian local governments to plan a participation budget in 2025 in the amount specified in the Law on Local Governments. The tasks of the work are to study the findings of various authors on public participation and the participatory budget, to analyse the normative documents on the participatory budget adopted in Latvia and to conduct a situational study of the experience of local governments and their readiness to implement a participatory budget by 2025. Methods used in the work - monographic method, analysis of various theoretical sources, regulatory acts, sociological research method - interview, - for finding out the opinion of experts and logically constructive method - for forming judgments and recommendations.

Sustainable ecotourism development needs participation, participatory communication, and local wisdom. A participatory communication strategy needs to be implemented so that the community is willing to accept the policy and get involved in developing and maintaining these tourist destinations. Communication must be dialogical and symmetrical, and decision-making must be participatory by considering local wisdom. This study uses participatory communication theory. The study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data collection uses literature studies, in-depth interviews, and FGDs. Informants in the study were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research findings show that participatory communication in ecotourism planning and development includes Dialogue, Heteroglossia, Polyphony, and Carnival. Meanwhile, the model of community participation is empowered participation. Ecotourism based on local wisdom can increase community participation and build participatory communication. Optimizing ecotourism based on local wisdom can help increase people's income and maintain nature conservation and cultural preservation.

Introduction. The relevance of the study is caused by the spread of participatory budgeting practices in Russia and abroad. In 2017 the joint project ‘Development of initiative budgeting in the Russian Federation’ of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation and the World Bank has been launched. More than 50 Russian regions are involved in this project today. In March 2018 the need to develop citizen engagement was reflected in state program of the Russian Finance Ministry ‘Public Finance Management and Regulation of Financial Markets’. Since citizen participation in the budget process is still new, scholars and practitioners take interest in foreign experience, in particular, in the mechanisms used in European countries. Portugal is of a particular interest because the only nationwide practice of participatory budgeting is being implemented there.Materials and methods. The article is based on the comparative historical analysis and case-study method. Academic articles, thematic books and monographs, official websites of the state and local authorities of Portugal, specialized online-participation portals, reports of foreign experts at the Moscow Financial Forum 2018 were involved as sources. The author also relied on oral information received from the representatives of the Branding and Communication Department of Lisbon during an in-person meeting at the City Hall in June, 2018.Results. The historical and political context of the development of modern mechanisms of direct democracy in Portugal was identified. The nationwide program, national programs of school and youth participatory budgeting are analyzed. The specificity of the projects, the target audience and the results within each of the directions are described. Special attention is paid to the city of Lisbon, in which several crowdsourcing and participatory practices are implemented.Discussion and conclusions. The most original approaches that are interesting from the point of view of the procedures used for engaging citizens or specifics of local issues that are presented for discussion in the framework of participatory practices are identified.

Sustainable tourism development is one of the main agendas in many countries, including Indonesia. Tourism based on the principle of sustainability provides economic benefits, maintains environmental sustainability, and promotes local cultural values. One of the key factors for the success of sustainable tourism development is support from local communities. Local communities play an important role because they are subjects and objects in tourism development. The involvement of local communities in this process can increase a sense of ownership, active Participation, and compliance with sustainable tourism practices. However, not all local communities have the same behavior in supporting sustainable tourism development. This study aims to find a model of local community behavior in supporting participatory-based sustainable tourism development. The study identifies local community behavior, such as attitudes, social norms, knowledge, and perceptions of benefits in sustainable tourism development through active Participation. This study uses a quantitative approach with Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis techniques. Data were collected through questionnaires from 100 local community respondents in Ranupani Village, Senduro District, Lumajang Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia. The results showed that attitudes and perceptions of benefits had a positive and significant effect on active Participation, while social norms and knowledge did not have a significant effect. Furthermore, active Participation was proven to positively and significantly affect sustainable tourism development. Attitudes and perceptions of benefits also indirectly influenced sustainable tourism development through active Participation. These results indicate the importance of building positive attitudes and increasing perceptions of the benefits of sustainable tourism to encourage active community involvement. Conversely, the low influence of social norms and knowledge requires a more effective approach by strengthening social norms and providing relevant education to the community. This study contributes to developing community behavior theory in sustainable tourism development. Further research is suggested to explore other variables, such as policy or technology support, that can influence active community participation.

This article elaborates citizens’ participation in shaping local development in the Indonesian context. The main question is how to make local development more participatory as a guarantee that citizens’ rights are fully realized. In that respects, social accountability is a key that should be improved from supply and demand sides simultaneously. From the supply side, there is a need to reform local governance, in order to improve the quality of local regulations, local planning, local budgeting, and local public service provision. While from the demand side, there is a need to empower local citizens so that they are engaged in five forms or local development efforts: local regulation formulation, local development planning, local budgeting, community driven development, and public service provision.

Local governments play a very important role in promoting the country's sustainable development, as they greatly influence the country's economic, social and territorial development. In turn, it is important for residents of municipalities to see that changes are taking place as a result of their participation. One of the ways of involving residents is through a participatory budget. Successful cooperation experience could promote greater trust of residents in their local government, better understanding of the activities of the local government. Democratization and decentralization of public administration are currently relevant in Latvia. In 2025, a participatory budget, which is required by law, must be introduced in all local governments in Latvia. In Latvia, less than half of all 43 local governments have tested a participatory budget by 2025. The association "Public Policy Centre PROVIDUS" has been a support and advisor to local governments, encouraging local governments to take steps towards cooperation with residents and to improve this process with each passing year. The aim of this study is to investigate the inclusion of residents in the management of municipal processes through participatory budgeting. Recognizing the importance of residents' involvement in the participatory budgeting process, the study will analyse the awareness, understanding and opinion of residents of all Latvian municipalities about the participatory budgeting process. The theoretical part of the study uses a monographic or descriptive method, but a survey of randomly selected respondents covering all local governments in the country is used to obtain primary data. The results of the study will allow Latvian municipalities to understand the significance and importance of participatory budgeting.

Full textAbstract:
Sustainable societies rely on inclusive decision-making processes, where local-level people’s participation plays a critical role in shaping architecture and urban planning. This study explores how community engagement influences sustainable development at neighborhood and societal levels, particularly in India. Given the complexities of urbanization, cultural behavior, and governance, this research examines how participatory action can enhance sustainability efforts. Through a literature review and expert-level surveys, the study evaluates the impact of people’s behavior, decision-making, and participatory frameworks on architectural design and sustainable neighborhood planning. The findings indicate that participatory models, such as Participatory Action Research (PAR) and Sustainable Development Indicators (SDIs), can effectively integrate public engagement into sustainable assessment tools. Key sustainability aspects—including education, health, water conservation, waste management, and social cohesion—benefit from people’s participation. The research suggests that tools like GRIHA, LEED-ND, and IGBC for Green Residential Societies should incorporate participatory frameworks to enhance sustainability measurement and implementation. This study contributes to rethinking architecture and planning by linking local decision-making with sustainable urban development.

AbstractThe main purpose of the research is to address the real, operational context of participatory budgeting. It is argued that this method of budgeting might be a useful tool for developing various ideas at a local level, including social/spatial justice, civil society, human capital, information society, or sustainable development. However, the implementation of participatory budgeting might, conversely, result from development processes. A combination of quantitative methods (principal component analysis and regression analysis) was applied to define the real motives for local authorities to employ participatory budgeting. To address the research questions mentioned in the paper, all rural communes employing participatory budgeting in Poland in 2017 were investigated. It was confirmed that participatory budgeting is an effect of development processes rather than a tool for achieving development goals. Interestingly, social/spatial injustice might significantly stimulate inhabitants’ engagement in participatory budgeting. On the other hand, the development of information society supports processes related to social involvement, including participatory budgeting.

In this paper we suggest that modern tourism planning of a destination should include participation from all levels of the community (direct stakeholders, local residents and differing age groups) if the participatory process is to be extensive and universal within the community. We see participatory planning as a critical success factor in seeking to satisfy the requirements of the modern paradigm of sustainability and responsibility in tourism. A community-based approach to tourism development is a prerequisite to sustainability. This focuses on community involvement in the planning and development process, and developing the types of tourism, which generate real social and economic benefits to local communities. Representing the interests and fulfilling the needs of various users is one reason for enabling their participation. Interestingly, children & youth are often overlooked in this regard even though adults may not adequately represent their needs. An important outcome of participatory planning is the process of collective learning that takes place through the underlying process of dialogue. We will refer in the paper to parallel research conducted with colleagues in Slovenia focusing in detail on the role of children & youth in the participatory process of developing sustainable tourism at a local level. This includes a view that planning for sustainable tourism development is an effort to shape the future. Among stakeholders and community participants, children & youth have a significant voice in the future and to a strong degree should have the right to engage in development. The paper seeks to assess the role of participatory structures in planning and development and in the role of children & youth as stakeholders in the planning of local destination management.

Abstract Participatory community-based women’s group interventions have been successful in improving maternal and newborn survival. In rural Makwanpur, Nepal, exposure to these Participatory Learning and Action groups resulted in a thirty-percent reduction in neonatal mortality rate and significantly fewer maternal deaths. It is often theorised that participatory approaches are more likely to be sustained than top-down approaches, but this is rarely evaluated after the withdrawal of external support. We sought to understand how participatory learning and action (PLA) groups in Makwanpur fared after the supporting non-governmental organisation withdrew their support as well as factors affecting their sustainability. We used mixed methods, conducting a cross-sectional survey of 239 groups, thirty focus group discussions with group members and thirty key informant interviews within twelve–seventeen months after support was withdrawn. Eighty percent of groups were still active which suggests that PLA groups have a high chance of being sustained over time. Groups were more likely to be sustained if the group had local importance and members continued to acquire new knowledge. However, the participatory nature of the group and local embeddedness were not enough to sustain all groups. They also needed leadership capacity, a unifying activity such as a fund, and a strong belief in the value of their meeting to sustain. These key factors should be considered when seeking to enable sustainability of participatory interventions.

This study aimed to explore the challenges and progress made in the implementation of institutional mechanisms for local participatory governance in Paraguay, and their potential contributions to sustainable development, through an integrated review of scientific literature and legislation on the institutionalization of participatory governance mechanisms at the local level. In Paraguay, the mechanisms that have specific laws and regulatory standards are district development councils, neighborhood commissions, community councils, public observation, participation in non-mandatory public consultative sessions and hearings. However, the degree of participation allowed by these mechanisms does not guarantee the full participation and empowerment of local communities in the management of sustainable development of their territories.

Abstract Globalization changes our world too quick and regions cannot keep up. Copying mechanisms affect crafted products and architecture and create specific signs for each region. Understanding that, we can follow cultural concepts and transform them to fit the current era and sustain local identity within communities. Compared with evolution, community attachment as part of social sustainability has the same self-regulated mechanisms. The adaptation process can be achieved in different ways, but only few are truly sustainable. To restore the sense of community and reconnect local people to their village at a deeper level, the participatory approach was tested. The process and tools well known from urban areas were applied in certain Slovak villages. As compared to participation in cities, in the rural environment, the process is more time-consuming. In theory, this should bring a result that lasts longer than that achieved by standard processes. Methods proposed by us will have several outcomes like networking, open communication and, if successful, can be an inspiration for other villages and activists to adopt the approach. This time-demanding activity can help to support local people and show them how to coordinate themselves in the decision-making process. The bottom-up approach increases self-esteem and by place-making, small public intervention can help with communication with local municipalities. In this process, the designer acts as a facilitator of a multidisciplinary innovation project and must use own creativity to handle many challenges.

Full textAbstract:
Participatory development communication strategies to enhance local food security in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, have made substantial progress through urban farming initiatives. This study examines how these strategies contribute to improving local food security by analyzing urban farming programs initiated by the city government. Urban farming, as a key innovation, has become increasingly important due to diminishing arable land and the need for sufficient nutritional intake in both quantity and quality, necessitating active community involvement. The research employs observations and in-depth interviews with leaders and members of farmers’ groups, agricultural extensions, and the local Department of Agriculture and Food staff, reinforced by focus group discussions. Findings indicate that the communication strategy, rooted in a bottom-up participatory development communication approach from planning through evaluation, embodies community empowerment, making the success and sustainability of the program a shared responsibility. Despite some accomplishments, the initiative has not yet been adopted by all community members. The harvest is also limited to daily needs and has not greatly improved group members’ income. The key to participatory development communication in the urban farming program is regularly scheduled meetings held by farmer groups as a participatory medium to manage activities.

This study aims to reveal how the Madura indigenous communities' local wisdom is in the process of participatory planning and budgeting and determines the model of local community wisdom in the process of participatory planning and budgeting as a whole. This study uses a qualitative ethnomethodological approach with a constructivist paradigm. The study results show that formal deliberations, namely development planning deliberations in general, are almost the same as in other regions in Indonesia. However, in the Madurese indigenous people, there are differences from most other regions in Indonesia, namely that apart from carrying out development planning deliberations, they actually carry out informal deliberations, namely community meetings. Moreover, the implementation of participatory budgeting, which is proven elsewhere, is not proven in the Madurese indigenous people who use community consultations as an initial stage in formulating community needs by providing aspirations in order to achieve local goals.

The research results found that the rural constitution begins from the process of cooperation among local and community leaders, academicians, local organizations, civil society, and the community. Then, it is organizing a meeting for sharing and proposing ways to solve the communities’ problems. After that the public hearing process organized for drafting and revising the rural constitution of the community, before they adopted the rural constitution together. Therefore, the rural constitutional development contributed to the participatory process of community which is the foundation of community-based participatory democracy. The major factor of participation comes from social awareness in the community issues, cooperation among local and community leaders, and civil society, academicians and local organizations. The rural constitution reflected the aspires and demands of villagers in health, economic, environment, and social development.

ABSTRACTThis paper introduces innovative participatory methods designed to foster community dialogue and engagement in development initiatives. We present participatory mapping, participatory photography, and two culturally grounded games, “Mayuk” and “Cachiveras,” as tools to facilitate community participation, dialogue, and reflection. Grounded in the theory of participatory action research (PAR) by Orlando Fals Borda, these methods prioritize local knowledge, foster a dialogue of knowledge between communities and researchers, and aim for social transformation through active community participation. By implementing these participatory activities, we not only engage communities in identifying resources, strengths, and opportunities but also promote a playful strategy for adults to deepen analysis and engage in critical dialogue about their culture and communication. This approach aligns with the conference theme of Putting People First, demonstrating responsibility, reflexivity, and care in the creation and evaluation of participatory development activities.

The article reveals trends in the development of participation in local self-government of Ukraine. The purpose of the article is to study trends in the development of participation in local government. The methodology in this article is based on a number of normative legal acts of Ukraine, which today regulate the components of participation in local self-government, in particular the Constitution of Ukraine, normative legal acts on local self-government and public participation in local self-government, as well as international reports and norms. The main result of the research is the study of the development of local self-government from the foundations of democracy to its implementation in the national legislation of Ukraine at the current stage. After all, understanding the essence of partisanship is impossible without the concept of the essence of "participatory democracy", which is an innovative concept and is a mixed form of direct and representative democracy. The concept of participatory democracy as a basis for the development of participation in local self-government of Ukraine is revealed, the legal basis of the concept of "territorial community" as a subject of participation in local self-government is analyzed, and the basis the principles of community coexistence and local self-government are synthesized. The main problems of participation are identified and the main forms of public participation in local self-government are presented as a promising innovative method of management at the local and local levels. This article successfully delineates the transformation of participatory democracy in Ukraine, marked by a profound commitment to enhancing the mechanisms of public participation within local government structures.

Object: The introduction of participatory budgeting in a digital format in order to increase civic engagement in making managerial decisions on territorial development. The hypothesis of the study is that digital participatory budgeting increases the role of institutions of local government and civil society. Methods: The study used the method of content analysis in the study of foreign experience and normative legal acts regulating the activities of local self-government of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Findings: Based on the results of the analysis, it was revealed that the policy of decentralization affects the territorial development of developed countries. The level of decentralization is closely related to how local governments perform their role in the distribution of various functions within the public administration system and is crucial for regional development. In this regard, the project "Organization of a set of measures aimed at the development of local self-government" in Kazakhstan uses a digital platform of participatory budgeting to involve citizens, public organizations, local authorities and local community meetings for the uniform development of the country's regions. Conclusions: Currently, the Republic of Kazakhstan is in the process of building a new model of interaction between the state apparatus and citizens based on the principle of "human-centricity". The conducted research shows that the use of digital platforms contributes to an increase in the activity of citizens in the process of making managerial decisions. The Berekeli Bastama project, launched at the level of the entire republic, can become a driver for the development of participatory budgeting and the development of the territory as a whole.

The Act of Village has given many opportunities for villages in Indonesia to generate innovation in the local contexts. The governance for village development creates a new way to develop the rural area through visionary leadership innovation. This study showcases two villages that can encourage modernism in innovative leadership, namely Panggungharjo Village and Sayan Village. These villages have been able to promote local democratization from political clientelism to good governance. This study presented social change by the Most Significant Change (MOS) approach that involves two headmen in the site of engagement community. The critical finding of this study is directed into three notions. First, a contestation of village election is free from clientelistic and money politics. Second, the program is oriented toward citizenship. Third, the governing authority in the local village is given by the resources in the form of village funds allocated in a targeted and legal manner to support community empowerment. In this community service, community organizing to realize good governance practices through innovative leadership is a central issue in the sustainable development of the village

Purpose: This paper examines the role of participatory planning in promoting sustainable development by conducting a comprehensive review of existing literature. The objective is to assess how participatory methods contribute to economic, environmental, and social sustainability, particularly in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Methods: Using a qualitative research approach, the study analyzes academic journals, and global case studies to identify key successes, challenges, and trends in participatory planning. Results: The findings reveal that participatory planning enhances community engagement, improves resource allocation, and fosters local ownership and accountability, making projects more effective in the long term. However, challenges such as power dynamics and inclusivity issues remain significant barriers. Conclusion: The paper recommends that governments and stakeholders implement policies that strengthen participatory frameworks, provide training for community members, engage diverse stakeholders, and leverage digital tools for broader inclusion. Future research should explore the long-term impacts of participatory planning and investigate innovative methods, such as the use of artificial intelligence and climate resilience strategies.

Purpose This impact assessment provides empirical evidence from household producer surveys to test the assumptions surrounding the contribution of participatory varietal selection (PVS) activities on seed sector development. The purpose of this paper is to focus on household access and adoption of common bean varieties from seed provision services and local markets to determine if, and under what social conditions, PVS activities stimulated seed uptake and market participation. Design/methodology/approach The propensity score matching technique and simple regression analysis were used to estimate the impact and compare household performance across three farmer groups located in Hoima, Uganda. Findings PVS increased access to and adoption of improved varieties and supported additional intermediate development outcomes when farmer group characteristics were aligned with PVS efforts. Specifically, PVS was more likely to stimulate market purchases of newly introduced varieties in the farmer group located closest to markets. The project did not however, improve all the development objectives that were evaluated. PVS most critically, did not increase the probability that households received the specific varieties they desired. Research limitations/implications This study found that PVS can support the key pillars of seed sector development. In addition to increasing household access to new varieties, free seed dissemination promoted market participation and stimulated local seed market development. Originality/value This study addressed the need to consider intermediate development outcomes in impact assessments of development interventions. The findings clarified the contribution of PVS in the context of broader development goals and identified farmer group dynamics associated with enhanced impacts among rural producers in Uganda.

Introduction: majority of the Russian Federation regions have created the regulatory framework and institutional conditions for the development of participatory budgeting; projects are selected and financed on a competitive basis. However, selecting forms and methods of participatory budgeting, evaluating the projects submitted, analyzing the effectiveness of the funds used and implemented projects in the short and long term still remain debatable issues. Objectives: generalization of approaches to assessing the effectiveness of participatory budgeting and analysis of initiative budgeting practices in the Sverdlovsk Region. Methods: dynamic and comparative analysis, generalization. Results: the institutional conditions for practical implementation of participatory budgeting in the Sverdlovsk Region have been established, including the regulatory legal framework: stages of project development and presentation; project selection criteria ensuring transparency of the competitive selection procedure. From 2017 (the implementation start) to 2022 in the Sverdlovsk Region the number of projects submitted to the regional competition increased 13 times, the number of winning projects – 11 times, which indicates the progressive development in participatory budgeting. Analyses were carried out on the following: municipalities participation; projects submitted to the regional competition and recognized as winners; existing problems in project implementation. The problems that slow down the implementation of participatory budgeting have been formulated. The tools that contribute to the development of participatory budgeting have been identified, as well as the expected effects from introducing digital product on participatory budgeting at all stages – from accepting applications for regional selection to project implementation. Conclusions: participatory budgeting allows citizens not only to participate in planning directions, implementing projects and monitoring local budget expenditures, but also to solve pressing social issues and prevent emerging conflicts with authorities. In the Sverdlovsk region, there is a positive trend in participatory budgeting practices, which indicates that both local authorities and the population are aware of the possibilities of participatory mechanisms.
