One of the main objectives of the Strengthening Fiscal and Financial Stability project and the Strengthening Governance in Mongolia project, jointly implemented by the Ministry of Finance of Mongolia, the European Union, and the World Bank, is to support the production and dissemination of Citizen's Budgets and the inclusion of e-features in the web-based portal that would allow citizens to participate in the planning of policies actively.
Since 2018, the MOF has been producing the Citizen’s Budget and Execution Reports providing detailed fiscal and financial information in a highly didactic manner using infographics to facilitate citizen's understanding of the budget data. The Citizen’s Budget provides (i) detailed fiscal and financial data, including the budget proposal submitted to the Parliament, (ii) approved budget by the Parliament and (iii) the quarterly and annual budget execution, (iv) the Government's economic and fiscal policy reforms, and measures taken to improve the quality and accessibility of social services to citizens through infographics, and information on annual fiscal policy, revenue, expenditure, investment, Government foreign loans and aid, budgeting process, citizen participation, and citizen targeted services.
In order to take this initiative to the next level and to provide information on the budget through various channels and in a timely manner, the European Union's “Strengthening Governance in Mongolia” project supports the MOF in designing and developing the next generation, interactive, and web-based Citizen Budget.
