"It has been supremely refreshing to find that there are groups around the world who are concerned with national budget processes, with the role of international financial institutions, and most importantly, with making national budgets work more effectively for disadvantaged and vulnerable groups.
I observed an exciting and eclectic mix; between a beautiful Latin American passion for the rights of people, a pragmatic Asian focus on basic issues "beyond the headlines", a stolid Eastern European determination to embed civil society institutions in a hitherto closed environment and a welcome African
desire to co-operate before we compete."
Dennis Kabaara, IEA, Kenya"One of the most important things that the conference gave me is that it made me conscious that the best way to do a better job is to build networks and exchange experiences with other organizations that work to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the use of public resources."
"My participation in the IBP Conference gave me a lot of knowledge and the possibility to promote budget work in Kazakhstan. Upon my return our Center decided to create a network of NGOs in Kazakhstan to develop their budget analysis capacity for the evaluation of budget expenditure effectiveness."
