International Budget Partnership

The International Budget Partnership (IBP) is the leading organization that works with people and governments to promote public budgets that are transparent and inclusive. We strive to reduce poverty, improve governance, and ensure human rights. Established in 1997, IBP collaborates with civil society organizations in countries around the world to use budget analysis and advocacy as a tool to improve governance and reduce poverty. In addition to its support of civil society efforts within countries to improve budget policies and implementation, IBP and its partners conduct research and advocate at national and international levels for improvements in budget transparency, participation, and accountability.
