HIGH LEVEL FORUM ON AID
EFFECTIVENESS, BUSAN
How to ensure wide and active
participation of different stakeholders?
WHO IS INVOLVED IN ENHANCING AID
EFFECTIVENESS?
•
Paris Declaration addressed partner countries and
traditional DAC donors.
•
AAA recognised wide range of partnerships and
actors including South-South cooperation, middleincome countries, CSOs and global funds.
•
Wide participation is not new: objective in Busan
is to deepen the engagement of different actors
involved in enhancing development results.
NON-TRADITIONAL DAC DONORS
•
Particular focus is on deeper engagement of China, India
and Brazil.
•
Increasingly important partners, but critical on labels such
as ‘donor’ or ‘aid’. Also recipients of ODA.
•
Possible contributions in Busan: Champions of SouthSouth cooperation. Pragmatic experience on transition to
Middle-Income-Country (MIC) status.
PRIVATE SECTOR
•
Divided into non-profit and for-profit private sector.
•
Non-profit (global funds) are addressed in AAA (par 19c)
•
For-profit private sector has experience on how to work
with aid (aid as a catalyst, public-private partnerships).
•
Possible contribution in Busan: deepened commitment to
AE (non-profit) and participation in discussion and
consensus-building on development partnerships (forprofit).
HOW TO OPERATIONALISE WIDE
PARTICIPATION IN BUSAN OUTCOME?
•
Challenge in Busan: how to combine inclusiveness and
ambition.
•
Ways to operationalise participation: taking part in
preparations, taking part in the event, adherence to Busan
outcome and commitments.
•
One solution is to agree on global principles and
differentiated responsibilities expressed in the outcome
document.
•
View of partner countries is important but so far partner
countries have not been vocal on the wide participation in
Busan.
SESSION III: QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION
•
How to combine ambition and inclusiveness in
Busan outcome?
•
Should Busan outcome differentiate
responsibilities and commitments between
different stakeholders?
•
What could be the specific contributions of the
non-traditional donors and private sector for
Busan?
