Open Aid Partnership

Innovations Labs World Bank Institute IATI Steering CommitteeParis, March 13, 2013

Why Open Aid and Why Maps Matter?

1. To enable visualization and accessibility of aid information

2. To advance transparency in line with IATI standards

3. To enable citizens and stakeholders to provide direct feedback on project results

4. To improve efficiency of increasingly scarce aid resources

OAP Objectives

1. Improve Aid Transparency: increase transparency on aid flows and public service delivery

2. Enhance Results: Better target, monitor, and coordinate aid flows within countries

3. Establish Feedback Loop: Empower citizens and CSOs to provide direct feedback on project outcomes

Increase Aid Transparency and Citizen Engagement for Better Results

Key Components of Partnership

• Open Aid Map a common platform to show locations of donor programs

• Country Platforms for open aid flows and public expenditures

• Capacity Development to empower CSOs and citizens to effectively use and generate data

• Citizen Feedback Loops to promote citizen engagement in the delivery of public services

• Impact Evaluations to assess the impact of open aid on development outcomes
