Understand public money
Service delivery
How does money become services?
The purpose of a budget is services: education, health, water and roads.
Key points
- Every project has a budget, a timeline and someone responsible.
- Project information is posted on public notice boards.
- Citizens can follow progress and report problems.
Accountability is complete when money becomes a real service: medicine at the clinic, desks at school, water at the tap.
If a project has stalled or a service is missing, ask at your village or street meeting, or use this project's tools.
