The webinar on #fiscal transparency kicks off with @Lorenardp of @FiscalTrans laying out six reasons why #FiscalOpenness is necessary in times of emergency such as the global #COVID19 pandemic to get the conversation started.

Insightful points from Sailendra Pattanayak of @IMFNews on the traditional funding mechanisms earmarked to meet emergency spending needs in many countries and the crucial need for #transparent reporting of the emergency response.

"Ultimately the question governments are going to be asked is not just did you deliver needed money but also did it make any difference?" Great points from @jmlakin of @OpenBudgets on the need for governments to meaningfully engage citizens on their emergency spending objectives.
