    Description
    With the massive global increase in urbanisation, new ideas are needed on how to manage and pay for the communal services on which people depend. Participatory budgeting is one such idea. PB is a mechanism of local government, which brings local communities closer to the decision-making process around the public budget. PB makes new connections between residents, political representatives, and local government officials. It explodes the myth that public finance is too complicated for ordinary people; something that needs to be done by 'experts' and kept within the control of politicians. Early steps are being taken to adapt this model of working to a British context, and to test it in a number of pilots in different contexts across the country. It can be seen as part of the broad range of developments taking place around the notion and practice of governance and social inclusion.

    Export search results

    The export button (to the right?) will allow you to export the search results of the entered query to a CSV file. To export the items, click the "Export" button.

    There are two options to select the items you want to export to a CSV. Either you export all results from a search query, or you select a subset of items from the search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" in the Export menu.

    After making a selection, click the 'CSV' button. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to 'CSV'.

    The amount of items you can export is limited, but authenticating will increase this limit.
