This report presents the findings and recommendations of the 2023 peer review of New Zealand’s development co-operation. In accordance with the 2021 peer review methodology, the report focuses on select areas that were identified in consultation with the New Zealand government and its partners. After an overview of the current economic and political context, the report analyses New Zealand’s development co-operation in four areas: the extent to which the co-operation system is fit-for-purpose; how New Zealand ensures quality and results; New Zealand’s approach to partner-led development and empowering local stakeholders; and the opportunities and challenges associated with substantially scaled-up climate finance. For each of these areas, the report identifies the elements enabling achievements, and opportunities and risks that lie ahead.
