UNDP Workshop for Legislative Budget Staff
2025/1/29
On January 28, 2025, Ambassador Kagomiya participated in the Capacity Building Workshop for Legislative Budget Staff of the FSM and other Pacific Island countries held by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
Since 2018, UNDP has been carrying out the Strengthening Legislatures Capacity in the Pacific Project(SLIP) with the funding from the Government of Japan.
Reflecting the Pacific Island legislatures' strong need and interest for a strengthening of the budget work, this workshop focusing on topics such as the Amended Compact and the Sector Grants, Citizen's budget, and legislature's role in ensuring Transparency and Accountability, Aid Effectiveness, etc., has been held as a part of the project.
Ambassador sincerely hopes this project will contribute to the capacity building of these legislatures and to maximizing 'Value for Money' of the government budget of Pacific Island countries.
