HLF 4: an evidence-based process

Monitoring the implementation of the Paris Declaration and AAA – Surveys (2006, 2008, 2011): 78 countries in 2011 (incl. 12 countries looking at Fragile States Principles) • Evaluating the Paris Declaration (independent process) – 22 countries and 18 donors/agencies • Additional sources of information

Quick overview on PD evidence

:

2005 Baseline 1. Operational Development Strategies 19% 2a. Reliable Public Financial Management (PFM) systems 3. Aid flows are aligned on national priorities 44% 46% 4. Strengthen capacity by co-ordinated support 49% 5a. Use of country PFM systems 40% 6. Strengthen capacity by avoiding Parallel PIUs 1 696 7. Aid is more predictable 42% 43% 8. Aid is untied 87% 9. Use of common arrangements or procedures 43% 10a. Joint missions 20% 22% 10b. Joint country analytic work 41% 44% 48% 11. Results-oriented frameworks 7% 12.

What have we learned?

1. Survey helped to maintain interest 2. Survey stimulated dialogue at country level 3. Ownership from participants 4. Regional approach was useful 5. Scope for more locally-owned analysis 6. Survey only tells part of the story

Increased interest in the survey

MONITORING BUSAN PARTNERSHIP…

A country focussed – globally light approach

COUNTRY LEVEL FRAMEWORKS

Own indicators and targets Lead by the country Results made public

+ INTERNATIONAL LEVEL FRAMEWORK

Selective indicators and targets, measured globally or aggregating country-level information Monitor progress on a rolling basis Managed by the Global Partnership

Why a global monitoring framework?

SUPPORTS ACCOUNTABILITY SERVE AS A REFERENCE POINT FOR COUNTRY LEVEL FRAMEWORKS STIMULATE BROAD-BASED DIALOGUE AND LEARNING

Approach to global monitoring

• Global progress reports produced to inform ministerial level meetings • No more centrally managed surveys – use of existing sources of data when and as they become available • Data collection at country level to be grounded in existing national monitoring processes • Continued support through a Global Help Desk Facility • Overall assessment of progress to draw on indicators and complementary qualitative evidence • Periodic reviews of global indicators and underpinning methodology through the Steering Committee

Global indicators Thematic

Development co-operation is focused on that meet developing countries’ priorities

results Indicator

Extent of use of country results frameworks by co-operation providers (specific criteria to be finalised).

Civil society

operates within an environment which maximises its engagement in and contribution to development Engagement and contribution of the

private sector

to development

Transparency

: information on development co-operation is publicly available Development co-operation is more

predictable

Enabling Environment Index Measure to be identified Measure of state of implementation of the common standard by co-operation providers a) annual: proportion of aid disbursed within the fiscal year within which it was scheduled by co-operation providers; b) medium-term: proportion of aid covered by indicative forward spending plans provided at the country level Aid is on budgets which are subject to

parliamentary scrutiny Mutual accountability

co-operation actors is strengthened through inclusive reviews among development

Gender equality

and women’s empowerment % of aid scheduled for disbursement that is recorded in the annual budgets approved by the legislatures of developing countries.

% of countries that undertake inclusive mutual assessments of progress in implementing agreed commitments.

% of countries with systems that track and make public allocations for gender equality and women’s empowerment.

Country level monitoring

• Essential for realising the Busan commitments as delivery is at the country level.

• Led by developing countries according their specific demands • Existence of country level monitoring reinforces global monitoring.

• Could be coordinated regionally

Global Indicators

Linkages between global and country level

Country level indicators Country level data needed for global level Gives a reference on how others are doing Regional organisations key for support and accountability Country results could be reported at the Global Partnership Joint OECD/UNDP could provide support for menu of indicators
