Transparency in COVID-19 Relief Funding
Busi Sibeko (Institute for Economic Justice) talks pros and cons for South Africa with regards to dipping into International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank COVID-19 relief resources. Sibeko highlights that it’s up to the government to ensure that there are no conditions that are anti-poor and suggests we look internally for ways to make funds available before going to the likes of the IMF for reserves.
