Budget Groups in India
Over the last two decades, a number of civil society organisations
in India have started engaging substantively with budget analysis
and advocacy efforts for improving transparency, participation and
accountability in governance. While some of these CSOs have adopted
the lens of specific disadvantaged sections of population (like,
children, dalits or adivasis), some organisations have focused primarily
on specific sectors (like, health, education or decentralization).
Some of these CSOs have also adopted budget analysis and advocacy
as a tool for strengthening their existing interventions for improvements
in public policies and processes in a number of sectors.
The following is not a comprehensive list of civil society budget
groups in India; it is a compilation of the names of primarily those
CSOs involved in budget analysis and advocacy work with whom CBGA
