Budgeting for Sustainability in Africa: Integration of Pro-Poor Environment, Natural Resources and Climate Change to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals Guidance Manual

The purpose of this guidance manual is to support African government officials and development partners to integrate pro-poor environment, natural resource, and climate sustainability into national and sub-national public sector budgeting and public finance management systems. The guidance is grounded in the practical experience of public finance management systems as applied in African countries and draws on examples from Burkina Faso, Malawi, Mali, Mauritania, Mozambique, Rwanda and Tanzania where the UNDP–UNEP Poverty-Environment Initiative had been engaged since its inception – as well as other African countries with experience of mainstreaming such as Ghana, South Africa and Uganda.
