CSO Development Effectiveness

The donor community is commited to increasing aid and to working with partners to make aid more effective. Donors are held accountable for the way they manage aid and the development results they achieve.

This book surveys the practices of the 23 members of the OECD DAC. In doing so, it seeks to offer inspiration to aid managers and practitioners - new and experienced - who are interested in continuously improving the way donors and partners work together. The shared goal is to help partner countries to reduce poverty and give their population a better chance in life.

Evaluation of the EC aid channelled through civil society organisations (excerpt)

"While the participatory development agenda adopted by the EC in 2000 is gradually changing the operation of the CSO channel, the EC has not yet de veloped a clear and consistent strategy on how to use the CSO channel in line with its stated policy objectives. Moreover, the prevailing culture within the EC is not conductive to such strategic management of the CSO channel because of disincentives such as: limited political backing; the administrative priority towards disbursing funding, the financial control of aid and short term results; the lack of space to establish strategic partnerships with CSO; and institutional fragmentation at both the headquar ter and delegation level. The CSO channel has had positive effects at project level but questions remain about the sustainable impact of these activities. The added value of the CSO channel is not sufficiently used by the EC, while good practices are not underpinned by a coherent and consistently applied strategy throughout all EC external services."
