The Helsinki of dreams is created together. OmaStadi.
OmaStadi is the City of Helsinki’s way of providing participatory budgeting services. Helsinki has allocated 8.8 million euros to realising residents’ wishes. The ideas are developed together into proposals that Helsinki residents can vote on. The proposals with the most votes are realised by the City.
