Claims, one by one

The text below is copied verbatim from the published record. Each claim names the source dossiers that carry it; caveats stay attached to the claim they qualify.

Claim 1 clm-ae0def6363762f01 quantitative
Since 2014 Paris lets residents propose and vote online
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
The city's dossier gives key figures since 2014 and says residents vote in ballot boxes across the city and online on decider.paris.fr; CityMonitor dates the first edition to 2014.
Caveat
Voting is also held at ballot boxes (505 in 2025), not only online.

Sources carrying this claim

  1. Ville de Paris — 10 years of the Budget Participatif, key figures since 2014
  2. CityMonitor — How Paris's participatory budget is reinvigorating democracy (8 January 2021)
Claim 2 clm-21b3af86026a0026 quantitative
on how to spend about 5% of its municipal investment budget
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
CityMonitor (2021) says residents decide how to spend €100m, around 5% of Paris's annual capital budget.
Caveat
The share is from 2021; the 2024 edition allocated about €83 million, and the city now frames the budget as part of a quarter of investments co-decided with residents.

Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
The city's ten-year dossier lists 'more than 3,400 worksites completed' among its key figures since 2014.
Caveat
A worksite count, not a project count: one winning project can involve several worksites.

Claim 6 clm-8bdfe614d1f22781 quantitative
No 2026 edition — paused for the municipal elections
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says

Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
The ten-year dossier's key figures: 1,345 winning projects, more than 3,400 worksites completed, €768 million.
Caveat
These are the city's own output counts; they say what was built and spent, not what it changed.

Claim 10 clm-b8a1381e16a4bb21 quantitative

Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
CityMonitor (2021): €100m a year, around 5% of the annual capital budget.
Caveat
Share stated in 2021; annual envelopes have varied since.

  1. CityMonitor — How Paris's participatory budget is reinvigorating democracy (8 January 2021)
Claim 11 clm-9aada8d1bdf21899 quantitative
even the 2025 edition's 162,395 voters are a small share of Paris's 2.1 million residents
Published field
lesson · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
The 2025 page gives 162,395 voters; INSEE counts 2,103,778 residents of the Commune de Paris in 2023.
Caveat
Residents from age 7 may vote, so the eligible population is somewhat smaller than the census total.

Sources carrying this claim

  1. Ville de Paris — Budget Participatif 2025: 104 winning projects
  2. INSEE — Commune de Paris, population 2023
Claim 12 clm-8bafbd5159875eee descriptive
the city reports winners, finished worksites and euros rather than what the projects changed
Published field
lesson · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
The dossier's key figures are ideas submitted, winning projects, completed worksites and euros spent; it gives no measure of what the projects achieved.
Caveat
No claim-specific caveat recorded

Sources carrying this claim

  1. Ville de Paris — 10 years of the Budget Participatif, key figures since 2014
Claim 13 clm-d7fdf752060de561 quantitative
A peer-reviewed study of the 4,043 projects financed from 2014 to 2021 concluded the budget may work mainly as political communication
Published field
lesson · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
Côme, Magne and Steyer compare the projects voted and finalised by the city and conclude the participatory budget would ultimately be an additional instrument of political communication.
Caveat
The find comes from the paper's abstract as indexed by RePEc/HAL; the publisher's page requires JavaScript.
