Neighbourhood platforms and budgets: a say in your own area
Neighbourhood platforms give residents a voice in their own area. Carla argued for anchoring the right to such platforms with adequate funding, and for making neighbourhood budgets easier to access.

Motion
Motion 263 (Veldhuyzen et al., with Kabamba): more funding for neighbourhood platforms. Adopted.
Committee
At the evaluation of neighbourhood budgets, Carla asked for a simpler process and accessible information.
