The role of CSOs in the budget cycle phases was discussed by Mitzi Chan, Advocacy Specialist of E-Net to further develop E–Net members’ skills in analyzing budgets, identifying opportunities for education-related allocations, and entry points for participation and engagement of CSOs in the local budget process. To further situate the local budget advocacy in practice, the UnitedYouth of the Philippines – Women, Inc. (UNYPHIL-WOMEN), a member organization of E-Net Philippines, shared their successful local budget advocacy campaign and strategies.

 

In the afternoon session, E-Net members prepared their action plans for local budget advocacy initiatives for the Marginalized, Excluded and Vulnerable Sectors (MEVS).
