The citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina have the right to request that public funds be managed and spent in a rational and economical way. As they spend funds from the public budget, the state authorities are obliged to provide detailed explanations of their expenditures and present it in a form easily understandable to the average citizen. In order to be able to demand answers from all government levels, and demand clarifications for any budget item that is unclear, it is important to understand how the existing public finance system functions. To address that need, the Public Interest Advocacy Center has, amongst other things, created Public Expenditure Glossary.
