Abstract

This article explores the primary challenges faced by local governments in planning and monitoring municipal budgets, such as limited fiscal autonomy, inadequate data, political interference, and weak monitoring mechanisms. It also presents practical solutions to these issues, including participatory budgeting, capacity building, digital financial systems, and performance-based budgeting. By highlighting both obstacles and strategic responses, the article aims to support transparent, accountable, and efficient local governance practices. It is particularly relevant for policymakers, municipal officials, governance experts, and civil society stakeholders engaged in public financial management.
