BudgIT Liberia started operations in September 2020 as a registered non-governmental entity to drive citizen participation in governance and promote development through efficient service delivery. So far, we have reached over 503,000 Liberians through online and offline engagements, including over 40 civic society organizations in Liberia. We have also conducted awareness programs, engaged over eight communities, and supported three government institutions.
Advocating for an actionable budget requires a massive civil education on the national budget, its process, and the collaborative efforts of other civil society and community-based organizations across the country. BudgIT Liberia took this strategy by hosting budget awareness workshops to educate individuals and the general public about the national budget, the legal framework that governs public spending, and budget development processes.
