Abstract:
The major objective of this proposal is to look at the budgetary process in Botswana in order to assess how that process fits into the new governance paradigm that encourages transparency and participation. A great part of this new approach to good governance is the growth of influence by the civil society and the private sector. The second objective of this proposal is to suggest ways and means of enhancing the transparency and participatory nature of Botswana's budgetary process
