The 6th Status Report on
Participatory Budgeting in Germany provides an overview of all municipalities
listed on the website buergerhaushalt.org. Since the first status report was
published in 2007, it is not only the number of municipalities listed here that
has grown continuously; so too have the requirements involved in listing them.
This is due chiefly to the growing diversity of types of process. To coincide
with the relaunch of buergerhaushalt.org, a great deal of work has therefore
been put into revising the material. A total of 403 municipalities were
researched, including all German municipalities with a population of more than
40,000, as well as the smaller municipalities already listed on
buergerhaushalt.org in previous years.
