It will cover systems and institutions for both revenue and expenditure management. It will also present indicators and red flags that can alert policy makers and oversight agencies to possible challenges and weaknesses including the potential macro-fiscal implications and cost of corruption. The course will present sound practices to promote fiscal transparency. This course aims at helping country authorities build their institutions and skills to fight corruption and strengthen fiscal transparency.
