The resident participatory budgeting system allows residents to directly participate in the budget formulation process by proposing desired projects and providing feedback.



An official from Incheon City stated, "Active participation and interest from citizens create transparent and sound city finances," adding, "The selected resident participatory budgeting projects will improve citizens' lives and contribute to regional development."
