Monitoring Government Budgets to Advance Child Rights
This new publication entitled: "Monitoring
government budgets to advance child rights: a guide for NGOs", was
compiled by Judith Streak of the Children's Budget Unit in the Institute
for Democracy in South Africa.
The guide aims to assist people who would like to conduct their own research
on government's budgeting for children. For these target readers, the
handbook offers research support and practical guidance on how to use
child budget analysis to generate information that can be used to advance
child rights.
The guide is also intended as an information resource for child rights
activists who would like to use budget information to reinforce their
advocacy work. For these target readers, the book provides insight into
the different types of information that can be generated through child
budget analysis.
