When did participatory budgeting start?

While there were earlier partial experiments, the PB formally came into existence in 1989 in a few Brazilian cities, in particular Porto Alegre. Outside Brazil, from 1990 onwards, in Montevideo, Uruguay, the population was invited to provide direction to the use of the resources of the Municipality in its five-year plan.
