PB in Schools Evaluation Toolkit – Why Data Matters

A guidance document from the Participatory Budgeting Project (PBP) that explains why evaluation is important in school-based participatory budgeting (PB) and outlines what kind of data to collect and how.

The toolkit presents the rationale for evaluating PB in schools (helping demonstrate impact, secure support, improve process), describes key types of data (participation metrics, demographic equity, budget outcomes, student learning) and offers practical best practices such as conducting pre- and post-surveys and stakeholder debriefs.
