The implementation of the “Participatory budget within the school” will be presented as a good practice example at the micro level, which can then be used at the macro level, ie at the municipal level. In this way, the method of The implementation of "Participatory budgeting within the school" served as a micro-level tool that can be used at the macro level, i.e. at the municipal level. In this way, a method of participation that is generally accepted in some cities is gradually being introduced into a small, closed, rural environment. Using the tool of participatory budgeting, young people learned what it means to participate in decision-making, allocation of resources, implementation of ideas and responsibility for the aforementioned. The goal of the project was to encourage the active participation of young people in decision-making processes in the local community and to strengthen the dialogue between young people and decision-makers through an innovative and effective tool of a comprehensive strategy for improving democracy, responsibility and project development in schools. With young people, it promotes: • democratic skills and participation • participation in management and a sense of responsibility • financial, project, entrepreneurial and communication skills. The project carried out several different activities that contributed to the achievement of all goals: budget analysis from the perspective of young people, implementation of participatory budgeting, simulation of the work of local self-government with a view to the EU level, workshops on communication and presentation skills, and mini-project management. In addition, the young people themselves designed as many as 6 projects as a solution to problems and needs in their community, visited an example of good practice in Pazin and Pula, met with decision makers, and organized and held a National Conference on the position of young people in rural areas. Young people thus acquired knowledge about the functioning of local self-government and the EU level, skills important for financial literacy and entrepreneurial skills through the development of ideas/mini projects.
