Aid Effectiveness
A Progress Report on Implementing the Paris Declaration
The 2005 Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness defines the principles and commitments
by which donors and developing countries intend to ensure that aid is as effective
as possible in contributing to the Millennium Development Goals and other internationally
agreed development objectives. This report is a mid-term review of progress towards
these commitments, drawing on the 2008 Paris Declaration Monitoring Survey and the
Evaluation Synthesis Report among many other sources.
Part I highlights the main actionable lessons and messages emerging from the analysis
of progress to date. Part II covers the commitments under the five Partnership Principles
related to ownership, alignment, harmonisation, development results and mutual accountability,
together with four subjects of critical relevance: sector perspectives, the role of
civil society organisations, situations of fragility and conflict, and the changing
aid architecture.
