Strengthening Accountability in Aid for Trade

image of Strengthening Accountability in Aid for Trade
At a time when aid budgets are under pressure and scrutiny, there is a need to improve accountability. This is especially true in the case of aid for trade, which has become an increasingly important priority in development co-operation.   Strengthening Accountability in Aid for Trade looks at what the trade and development community needs to know about aid-for-trade results, what past evaluations of programmes and projects reveal about trade outcomes and impacts, and how the trade and development community could improve the performance of aid for trade interventions.

Foreword

The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness (2005) orients the aid relationship towards genuine partnerships. Mutual accountability is a concept designed to focus these partnerships on delivering results. Three elements are central in establishing mutual accountability. The first is a shared agenda, with clear objectives and reciprocal commitments. The second involves monitoring and evaluating these commitments and actions. Both of these elements inter-relate with the third: dialogue and review.
