Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the main participatory budget practices in Europe, together with a description of the pioneer one of Porto Alegre, as many of them are based on it. We also present an architecture for e-participatory budget formation support. Finally, an experiment is carried out to illustrate the architecture.
