The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has significantly stepped up its development co-operation efforts in recent years. Its official development assistance (ODA) measured as a share of Gross National Income reached 1.34% in 2013 and 1.17% in 2014, well above the UN target of 0.7% and higher than that of all members of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC).
This pilot will also contribute to the current discussion of what a broader measure of international development finance should look like. Such a measure should incentivise public financing in support of the Sustainable Development Goals and mobilise private resources for that purpose.
