DESCRIPTION:Join  JASEcon,  Center for Global Metropolitan Studies and other 
 community-based organizations for a discussion of Participatory Budgeting 
 and how it could be applied in SF Bay Area with Josh Lerner and Alderman 
 Joe Moore.\n\nPB can facilitate more inclusive decisions about budget 
 appropriations and cuts, with emphasis on directly including the voices of 
 people of color and the poor who are often underserved by budgets. It can 
 draw on the wisdom and creativity of local people to help solve their own 
 problems and create more local, living wage employment (like worker coops), 
 as well as more accountability and transparency.\n\nJoining us will be 
 international PB expert and founder of the Participatory Budgeting Project, 
 Josh Lerner, and Council member Joe Moore, who successfully implemented PB 
 in a multicultural district of Chicago.\n
