This report is a documentation of the joint public expenditure review of Environment and Disaster Risk Management for the 2006 to 2012 period. Public Expenditure Reviews (PERs) involve the analysis of allocation and management of public expenditures and may cover all government expenditure or focus on a few priority sectors such as agriculture, water, land, infrastructure and others.
Information gleaned from Public Expenditure Reviews (PERs) is used to provide key guidance to strategic planning and budget preparation and to identify ways in which to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of resource allocations. This Public Expenditure Review (PER) provides a baseline for future trend analysis in the budget allocation and execution and effectively monitors progress on the contribution of Malawi’s Environment and Disaster Risk Management toward sustainable development.
