Strategy Documents:
This document considers current trends in donor funding and health priorities and assesses internal structures and challenges on the basis of which a strategy has been developed. The strategy consists of seven major approaches that address a variety of challenges impacting effective resource mobilization. The seven approaches are: (1) Improve communication and information flow; (2) Institute processes, systems and tools; 3) Introduce incentives and empowerment; (4) Enhance skills and capacity; (5) Pursue donor interaction; (6) Strengthen interpersonal relations and (7) Produce results and monitor impact. |
This document presents an analysis of current trends and the WHO Regional Office for Africa institutional set up for engaging in more and improved partnerships to overcome challenges, achieve health impacts and improve support to Member States in the Region. It suggests that emphasis should be placed on three actions: (i) developing an enabling environment for partnering, (ii) identifying and engaging in optimal partnerships and (iii) promoting partnerships for the Regional Office. |

Report prepared for the Accra High Level Forum on Effectiveness 2-4 September 2008 Aid has made a significant contribution to health gains achieved so far. This report argues that greater adherence to the Paris Declaration would accelerate progress still further. Improvements in the effectiveness of health aid are already happening: increased predictability of aid, more harmonization of the efforts of various donors, better alignment of health aid with countries priorities, and greater accountability - from both donors and recipients - for the results aid achieves. However these achievements need to be extended to more countries and broadened to include a wider group of aid actors. |
2nd High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness February 28 - March 2, 2005 The Paris Declaration is the most current global recognition and a salient reminder that countries and organizations have to increase efforts in harmonization, alignment and management of aid to achieve sustainable development. The Paris Declaration rallies country and development agency support around five key principles: ownership, alignment, harmonization, management for results, and mutual accountability. It focuses around 12 agreed indicators of aid effectiveness. At the international level, it constitutes a mechanism by which donors and recipients of aid are held mutually accountable to each other and ensures that compliance in meeting the commitments set will be publicly monitored. At the country level, it encourages donors and partners to jointly assess mutual progress in implementing agreed commitments on aid effectiveness by making best use of local mechanisms. The Paris Declaration has resulted in renewed focus and coordination of international development aid efforts. |
The Accra HLF was organized to present the 2008 Survey on Monitoring the Paris Declaration which assesses progress made in 54 partner countries and helps understand the challenges in making aid more effective at advancing development. The Accra HLF was not only an output meeting but the result of a collaborative process including countries, donors, and civil society representatives who reviewed the results and identified actions needed to meet the 2010 targets agreed in the Paris Declaration. |
