AIAE inaugurates Policy Think Group
African Institute for Applied Economics (AIAE) on 29th January, 2010 in Enugu inaugurated a Policy Think Group (PTG) – an independent think-tank devoted to the critical analysis of topical policy questions about the Nigerian economy. The intent is to advance evidence-based decision making by stakeholders including government, private sector, civil society and the entire development community.
The objective of PTG is to render sound analytic perspectives that can inform and influence public discourse of topical economic policy matters. In line with this objective, PTG held a session on the implications and challenges of the federal government budget proposal for 2010. The essence of the session was to contribute ideas and inputs for the current budget review-and-appropriation process being undertaken by the National Assembly. In addition, the session was aimed at providing analysis to inform stakeholders that are engaged in public debate on the budget proposal
