Project Information
Oxford Policy Management has developed an explicit conceptual model of General Budget Support which details the process through which general budget support impacts on poverty reduction. The work includes:
conclusions on the appropriateness, effectiveness and efficiency of general budget support as a mechanism for poverty reduction; findings on the skills and organisational structure that are required to design and manage general budget support; identification of emerging lessons on good practice in the appraisal, design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of general budget support; identification of appropriate evaluation frameworks for tracking intermediate outcomes of budget support; and three country case studies (India, Mozambique and Uganda) looking at observable links between general budget support, changes in budget and planning processes and potential poverty impact.
