Abstract

Niger, one of the poorest countries in the world, faces serious risks and challenges on several simultaneous fronts: food insecurity, social distress, demographic explosion, terrorist threats.... This work will examine how Niger´s budgetary policy has tried to respond to these different challenges, under a public financial environment a bit more favourable since some years ago, in spite of some contraction more recently. Furthermore, in addition to the availability of financial resources, important issues arise regarding their utilisation and management by public policies.
