Informal Economy Budget Analysis
Pioneered by the women’s movement, interrogation of resource allocation within government budgets has proved to be a powerful policy analysis and advocacy tool.
ShareWIEGO has adapted these techniques for the informal economy. Informal Economy Budget Analysis (IEBA) examines how government budgets address the needs and interests of different groups of workers in informal employment. It also explores what opportunities exist for workers (or their representatives) to participate at different stages of the budget process.
