Monitoring Progress towards SDGs through Public Spending
Manage episode 268417506 series 1876196
This episode examines the opportunity to use money as a lens to evaluate the government’s policy priorities and results, and to strengthen fiscal scrutiny practices to better oversee progress on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. Dr. Helaina Gaspard, Director of Governance and Institutions at the Institute for Fiscal Studies and Democracy (IFSD) at the University of Ottawa provides an overview of how the national budget process is an important avenue through which parliaments can monitor and evaluate progress towards the SDGs, since it is the main policy instrument that identifies annual revenue expectations and spending priorities.
This presentation was recorded at the 16th ParlAmericas Plenary Assembly, Accelerating Progress on Agenda 2030: Good Practices for Parliamentary Action, taking place in Asuncion, Paraguay from October 30th to November 1st, 2019.
