Citizen participation is a central aspect of democracy. It is a mechanism for the empowerment of citizens that allows it to be expanded. In order to generate empirical evidence on its impact on the efficiency of public administrations, we have, with a prior conceptual, theoretical, methodological and instrumental framework, investigated its results in the Municipal Social Infrastructure Fund (FISM) received by the municipalities of Hidalgo. We sought to answer questions such as: will municipal efficiency improve if citizens are included in decisions? What kind of citizen participation —consultative, deliberative or evaluative— influences financial efficiency the most? These questions were answered through an econometric methodology that uses panel data with a Random Effects Model (REM). The result obtained showed that evaluative citizen participation favors local financial efficiency in Hidalgo.
