2 Development Assistance Committee DAC A unique international i lforum where donor governments and multilateral organisations, such as the World Bank and the United Nations, come together to help developing countries reduce poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals.

3 The role of the OECD and the DAC OECD/DAC: leading source of statistics, good practice (guidelines & principles) and review on development co operation operation Mobilises official development assistance (ODA) Helps change behaviour in the international aid system to increase its effectiveness (aligned, harmonised, results focused and untied) Develops ways to assist poor performing, conflict prone countries Supports increased attention by OECD members to policy coherence for development.

8 Why does aid effectiveness matter?

9 Paris Declaration: A Milestone for Aid Effectiveness Agreed in Unprecedented consensus; 56 action oriented commitments for both Donors and Partners countries; Built in mechanism for monitoring progress at country and global levels (12 Indicators); and

10 Paris Declaration: A Milestone for Aid Effectiveness

11 Principle 1: Ownership Partner countries exercise effective leadership over their development policies, and strategies and co ordinate development actions. Progress: More partner countries have sound national development strategies

12 Principle 2: Alignment Donors base their overall support on partner countries national development strategies, institutions i i and procedures Progress Improved country system in 1/3 of countries, but a decline observed din others No progress in unting aid Aid not captured in country s budget

13 Example: World Bank s Environmental Assessment In 2005, the World Bank took an initiative to make use of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedures of partner countries, when they are judged to be as rigorous as the Bank s EIA. In this way, the Bank s projects can go through the y, p j g g country systems, without creating a parallel process under the Bank s standard.

14 Principle 3: Harmonisation Donors actions are more harmonised, transparent and collectively effective. Progress Technical co operation operation better co ordinated ordinated Little progress towards common or joint arrangements among donors

15 Kenya Joint Assistance Strategy (KJAS) Kenya Joint Assistance Strategy is a collective Strategy by 17 bilateral and multilateral donors. Canada, Denmark, EC, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherland, Norway, Spain, Sweden, UK, US, AfDB, UN, World Bank. KJAS serves as a basis for harmonised donor support for the implementation of the national development strategy, including Kenya s 2030 vision.

16 Principle 4: Managing gfor result Managing resources and improving decisionmaking for result Progress: Higher quality results oriented frameworksarein Higher quality results oriented frameworks are in place

17 Principle 5: Mutual Accountability Donors and partners are accountable for development results Progress: More participatory approach in development strategies, but some challenges for civil society activity in some countries

34 Measuring Aid for Climate Change Climate markers are statistical codes employed by OECD DAC to measure the aid targeting at climate change mitigation ii i and adaptation. Climate change mitigation (2002 ) Climate change adaptation ti (2010 )

35 Climate change markers criteria Climate Change Mitigation Marker The activity contributes to a) the mitigation of climate change by limiting anthropogenic emissions of GHGs, including gases regulated by the Montreal Protocol; or b) the protection and/or enhancement of GHG sinks and reservoirs; or c) the integration of climate change concerns with the recipient countries development objectives through institution building, capacity development, strengthening the regulatory and policy framework, or research; or d) developing countries efforts to meet their obligations under the Convention. Climate Change Adaptation Marker a) the climate change adaptation objective is explicitly indicated in the activity documentation; and b) the activity contains specific measures targeting the definition above. Definition of adaptation: It intends to reduce the vulnerability of human or natural systems to the impacts of climate change and climate related risks, by maintaining or increasing adaptive capacity and resilience. This encompasses a range of activities from information and knowledge generation, to capacity development, planning and the implementation of climate change adaptation actions.

36 Logical Steps for marking Q1. What objectives are stated in the project/programme document? Q2. Do any of the stated objectives match Criteria for eligibility of Rio Markers? Yes No Q3. Would the activity have been undertaken without this objective? No Yes Principal Significant Not targeted
