Global Experts to Examine Strategies for Budgeting for Sustainable Development at CDB Annual Meeting

June 13, 2022, BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – “Administrations and policy makers in CDB Member Countries must focus on astute measurement and management while balancing the needs of people to achieve shared prosperity and close the gaps to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)”, says Director of Economics at the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), Mr. Ian Durant. To assist the Bank’s membership in the development of national objectives and measuring their success in improving lives, the Bank has assembled regional, global, private and public sector players who will examine public financial management and supportive actions to achieve the region’s development agenda. 

Caribbean countries all have development plans linked to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which have set targets for 2030. Budgeting is a critical aspect of planning and development. Creating accounting models and strategies which offer innovative approaches to reporting and tracking development impact and attainment of the set goals can meaningfully feed into future strategies, benefit national economies and greatly assist in more accurate assessment of the distance from the SDGs.

The panel will examine the role of law-making, budgeting, oversight and stakeholder buy-in achieving allocative efficiency building on existing models and best practices in the public and private sectors.
