Participatory Budgeting has continues to rapidly spread through the world due to the many advantages it provides as it provides give alternative ways to have citizens be apart of the democratic process. Participatory budgeting has particularly transformed in countries that struggle to provide public services and rural communities marked by high levels of poverty and the state is fragile. Another key adaptation of participatory budgeting is that it is "far less likely to use specific rules that promote social justice and mandates the distribution of greater resources to underserved communities" which is significant because this allows for greater opportunity to serve poor communities.
