The present Technical Note aims at systemizing the discussion held in the virtual RedSNIP session of June 24th, 2020 related to public investment planning with the Nexo Water-Energy-Food focus.
The PlanBarometer project, initially known as the white paper on planning, emerged from resolution CRP/XV/01 of the Regional Council for Planning (CRP) of the Latin American and Caribbean Institute for Economic and Social Planning (ILPES) at its fifteenth meeting in Yachay (Ecuador) on 19 November 2015. ILPES took on the task of creating a guide on good practices in national, subnational and sectoral planning processes that incorporates instruments, approaches and methodologies for finance modelling in development planning and planning processes, particularly those linked to the 2030 Agenda
In the course of the twenty-first century, planning has gained momentum in Latin America and the Caribbean as a guiding policy tool for ensuring continued progress in development. However, current conditions are difficult both for planning as an instrument and for policymakers as executors of those plans that are developed. Social inequality, poor economic growth and global warming are but a few of the main issues in the current global context.
