13 & 14 November 2013
The 2013 CAPE Conference will look at how budgets actually work in the real world and explore the latest thinking on how they can deliver better development outcomes. Bringing together a distinguished array of global leaders and thinkers, the conference aims to shed light on two overarching questions:
- How does budgeting and public financial management really work in practice?
- What – if anything – can reformers do to strengthen budgets to improve development outcomes?
The whole conference will be streamed live online over the two days (13 & 14 November), allowing participation all around the world and interaction through twitter (#CAPE2013) and in the conference chat room.
There's a great line up of speakers, including:
- Antoinette Sayeh - Director, Africa Department, IMF; and former Minister of Finance, Liberia
- Allen Schick - Professor, University of Maryland; and Non-Resident Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution
- Luisa Diogo - Member of Parliament and former Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Mozambique
- Matt Andrews - Associate Professor, Harvard Kennedy School
