As part of the GRSCFP - MINFI partnership, the members of this group, in particular the GTOG, have undertaken the popularization of the Citizen's Budget for the year 2023. This is to facilitate the appropriation of this budget by the different layers of the company throughout the territory.
This activity falls within the framework of the implementation of the Public Finance Management Reform. Since the citizen is at the heart of this system, the government has decided since 2019 to publish each year a document summarizing the finance law called the Citizen Budget.
For this popularization, the GTOG has opted for a two-pronged action: raising awareness of targets face-to-face in a few localities in the Centre, East and Littoral Regions and an all-out media approach.
Thus for the face-to-face approach, the GTOG began its deployment in the Center Region: in Yaoundé, for the members of the GTOG (about twenty people), on May 23, 2023, followed by the municipality of Ngoumou for the municipal councilors and representatives of youth and women's associations, customary and religious leaders (about twenty people) on 25 May. The visits will continue in the municipalities of the East and the Littoral during the month of June 2023.
The media approach in action since May 2023 is based on the broadcast of programs and a capsule developed for this purpose by involving private radio stations, local community radio stations, television installed in these different regions and the GTOG website.
