This is why it is so great to see UN organisations, the @WorldBank, @CEQinstitute work together with civil society organisations, finding the right narrative and the specific examples to illustrate fiscal policies and their consequences!

[Oliver Fiala @oliver_fiala]

This analysis is around since the 1940s, but @CEQinstitute in collaboration with many international organisations has allowed to implement this in poorer countries as well (now covering 80% of the world's poor).
