Online event on managing COVID funds

A global scorecard of accountability

The COVID-19 crisis has resulted in governments committing more than USD 14 trillion in emergency spending. At this critical time for public finance management, the International Budget Partnership (IBP) conducted a rapid assessment of 120 countries’ performance on transparency, oversight and public participation in COVID relief packages. The findings and recommendations of this assessment will be presented in a virtual event on how governments can advance open budget reforms that ensure assistance reaches those who need it most and helps build back better. 

The event will be moderated by Sofia Sprechmann Sineiro, Board member of the IBP and Secretary General of CARE International. Please click here for more information on how to register.
