The key question of concern to UNICEF is the extent to which public budgets and related fiscal policies are responsive to children’s rights and whether public resources at all levels are used for intended purposes (transparency and accountability), benefiting the most marginalized. Specifically, UNICEF aims to further strengthen evidence building and analysis of trends to identify challenges and opportunities for increasing and improving the quality of public spending on social sectors in a transparent and accountable manner at all levels of government. This realization prompted UNICEF to bolster its work on Public Finance for Children (PF4C), since 2021. Inadequate, and sometimes ineffective, inefficient, and inequitable public spending on sectors and programmes supporting children is one of the reasons for multiple and overlapping deprivations amongst children in Sierra Leone. In 2019, the Government of Sierra Leone and UNICEF estimated that 66 percent of children in Sierra Leone are deprived of one or more essential services such as education, health, nutrition, protection and shelter.
