DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5eedc153/aid_effectiveness) has announced the addition of OECD Publishing's new report "Aid Effectiveness 2011: Progress in Implementing the Paris Declaration" to their offering.
In 2005, over 100 donors and developing countries committed to make aid more effective in supporting the achievement of development results when they agreed to the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness. One of the distinguishing features of the Paris Declaration was the commitment to hold each other to account for implementing its principles at the country level through a set of clear indicators, with targets to be achieved by 2010. To what extent have the commitments been realised? Is aid being delivered in a more effective way than five years ago?
This report provides some answers to these questions. Aid Effectiveness 2011: Progress in Implementing the Paris Declaration draws on the results of the 2011 Survey on Monitoring the Paris Declaration, building on similar surveys undertaken in 2006 and 2008. A total of 78 countries and territories volunteered to participate in the final round of surveys, which look at the state of play in 2010.
The results are sobering. At the global level, only one out of the 13 targets established for 2010 - co-ordinated technical co-operation (a measure of the extent to which donors co-ordinate their reports to support countries' capacity development objectives) - has been met, albeit by a narrow margin. Nonetheless, it is important to note that considerable progress has been made towards many of the remaining 12 targets.
For the most part, the findings are clear: while many donors and partner country governments have made significant progress towards the targets that they set themselves for 2010, few of them have been met. Partner country authorities appear to have gone further in implementing their commitments under the Paris Declaration than donors, though efforts - and progress - also vary significantly across countries and donor organisations.
