donors have made concrete commitments and strategies for scaling up, e.g. EC
aid effectiveness is on country agendas and is becoming part of aid coordination instruments;
strengthened national ownership;
stimulated constructive dialogue and new forms of partnerships.
Key constraints:
need for demand driven TC;
slow progress on untying aid and ensuring predictability;
donor field-HQ disconnect impacting behaviour change at country level;
need incentives for change and cost-effective interventions;
need for stronger and more accountable partner country institutions;
lack of partner country institutional capacity to manage and coordinate ODA
These messages should guide strategic interventions to support PD
implementation through results based ODA management and will
determine the dynamics and breadth of progress
