Covering Budgets and
Government Spending

A selective, action-based learning program for African journalists

 

The Covering Budgets and Government Spending Program is designed for print and broadcast journalists whose responsibilities include the coverage of economics, development programs and government activities.

Journalists should emerge from this program with a clear understanding of how budgets are formulated and executed, and how the press might cover the entire process more effectively.

The program emphasizes reporters' own reporting projects, which are focused on tracking actual outlays to determine whether expenditures were consistent with the published budget
