Public expenditure and macroeconomic management

Only sound management of public expenditures can lead to public programs that are result-driven, provide value for taxpayers’ money and are aligned with government priorities and responsibilities. Cowater experts work with local and national governments on macroeconomic management, budget planning and execution, and medium-term expenditure frameworks. To ensure public funds work for all citizen and reduce gender gaps, we have introduced tools such as gender-based budgeting in all our projects.
