Summary/Abstract: Participatory budgets are currently one of the most popular instruments of involving the society in managing local communities. As these budgets are popular and in many cases effective initiatives, many local governments in Poland use them. For several years, this mechanism has also been used by regional self-governments, which are larger structures, and it was first used by Małopolska on a large scale. In this article, the author wants to analyze the phenomenon of the regional civic budget, using the example of Małopolska, try to distinguish its characteristic features, and consider how the participatory budget fits into the tasks of the regional self-government.
