The project is aimed to improve the capacity of civil society and media to contribute to evidence-based economic dialogue in the country, enabling more participatory and transparent policymaking, with strong focus on fiscal policymaking; and, second, to increase the public awareness for the process of spending public money.
ZIP institute conducted a cost-benefit analysis (CBA) aimed at measuring the efficiency of a public policy called “Parental allowance for a third child”: whether the economic and social benefits are higher than the corresponding economic and social costs that would assess the impact and feasibility of the implementation of the measure.
The parental allowance for a third child is part of the public policy of the Government of the Republic of North Macedonia to increase the rate of population growth by creating conditions for maternity and child care in the country.
