A couple of hundred proposals were generated during the first brainstorming days for children and young people – the search for ideas continues until 19 October. 

The participatory budgeting (PBF) round for children and young people in Tuusula began on Monday, 29 September with a brainstorming session. On the first day, children and young people came up with 34 proposals during their lessons that could be used to increase well-being and comfort in Tuusula.
