Annual forward planning budgets for recipient countries
Definitions
The recipient-country-budget element allows for the reporting of forward looking budgets for each country in which the organisation operates. The recommendation is that, where and when possible, the organisation’s total annual planned budget for the next three to five financial years is reported for each recipient country. It is strongly recommended that the start and end of the reported financial years match those of the recipient country’s budgetary/planning cycle.
