Running a successful PB requires input from all parties. (Image: Pixabay 2020 \/ CC0)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PB Coaches promoting PB<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many municipalities have appointed special PB representatives within their organizations for making PB possible, boosting the changes, and enabling the smooth running of the project. The City of Lahti \u2018PB Coaches\u2019 from the service divisions support the pilot from within the organization and help inhabitants with their ideas in the co-creation phase. (City of Lahti 2020) The City of Helsinki \u2018Stadiluotsit\u2019 or \u2018City Pilots\u2019 support the PB process and inhabitants at their own specific areas in Helsinki. (Laaksonen 2020)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inhabitants have the inside track<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The nature of participation is to be open to all. Municipalities aim to join forces with different groups such as NGOs\u2019 and inhabitants to get clearer picture of what is going on in the municipality, as well as to get a helping hand for PB. An inhabitant survey conducted in Lahti in 2019 showed that respondents are interested in PB, but the topic is not yet well known (Osallistuminen ja vaikuttaminen Lahdessa 2019). To make PB more familiar, the City of Lahti appointed a group of locals to act as Project Guardians for three specific areas of the city (Eastern, Southern and Northern) as well as for the entire city. They support the PB pilot by communicating with inhabitants and helping them to take part in the pilot. (City of Lahti 2020) \u201cI participated out of general interest and have found the role of Project Guardian fun so far. We have had the chance to take part in planning the PB, as well as promoting the pilot during the idea creation phase in the spring. I\u2019m looking forward to new and exciting experiences along the pilot,\u201d says Ville-Veikko Vesala (2020) \u2013 one of the Lahti PB Project Guardians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using pears as ambassadors has proven to be a good tactic in other municipalities too, as Katja Repo (2020) from Tuusula points out: \u201cA message is often more relevant when it comes from someone in your shoes\u201d. PB can bring all the different groups of people together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Follow the Lahti PB pilot at the project website at <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lab.fi\/en\/project\/empowering-participatory-budgeting-baltic-sea-region-empaci\">LAB University of Applied Sciences<\/a><strong> and <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lahti.fi\/en\/latest-updates\/news\/brainstorming-participatory-budgeting-projects-in-lahti\">the official City of Lahti PB website.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#b3edfb\">Author<br><br><strong>Annukka Heinonen<\/strong>, MBA, works as an RDI-specialist at LAB University of Applied Sciences and as a project manager in the EU Interreg funded <a href=\"http:\/\/www.empaci.eu\/\">EmPaci \u2013 Empowering Participatory Budgeting in the Baltic Sea Region -project<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>City of Lahti. 2020.
