MOVISIE cooperates with E-motive on reciprocal learning. The Brazilian budget monitoring methodology is the second E-motive project implemented in the Netherlands. The methodology is developed by the Brazilian Instituto de Estudos Socioeconômicos (INESC, Institute for socio-economic studies).
Key in budget monitoring, as developed by ENESC, was linking the public budget and human rights. It is a tool used in the Brazilian concept to increase social participation in policy formulation and in monitoring implementation of the adopted budgets of various governments. Because of budget monitoring, citizens, communities and other organizations can gain insight into budgetary processes and allocation of resources. MOVISIE, the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (Hogeschool van Amsterdam) and Oxfam-Novib worked together in the E-Motive program. Via this collaboration the methodology was also implemented in the Netherlands.
