Overview
This grant will allow the Center to complete the development of its fiscal simulator, a public, Web-based tool that enables citizens to model different fiscal scenarios encompassing 95 percent of federal income and 90 percent of the federal expenditure. Given the recent energy reform, the fall in international oil prices, and the demographic dividend, the Center will develop two thematic modules within the simulator to analyze oil resources, as well as public expenditures in education, health, and the pension systems. The Center will also develop three reports: two separate reports that provide an analysis of expenditure in education and health and its relationship with the quality of the service, and a third report on expenditure in the pension system and its relationship to the demographic dividend.
