November podcast - chapter three: Budgeting in the real world

But does the way we think about the budgeting process damage our understanding of how important budgets are? In chapter three of ODI's November podcast, Jonathan Tanner speaks to Antoinette Sayeh - Africa Director, International Monetary Fund - and Philipp Krause - Budget Strengthening Initiative, ODI - about politics of budgeting in the real world.
