Alliance2015, an association of seven European aid organisations aiming to reach the Millenium Development Goals, actively and globally engages in shaping the principles for more effective aid. After successfully contributing to achieving significant results at the third High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness in Accra in September 2008, Alliance members focused on implementing the commitments from Accra in a number of countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Among the most important commitments from the Accra agenda for Action (AAA) was the pledge of donors and recipient countries to engage with civil society when shaping national and sector level development policies. Alliance2015 has been following up on this commitment in five countries: Mozambique, Tanzania, Ghana, Cambodia, and Nicaragua.
Engaging
In those five countries, Alliance2015 has been supporting partners to engage with governments and donors. In Cambodia, for example, Alliance2015 supports a local NGO network to organise tripartite consultations between donors, the government and civil society on the implementation of the AAA in the country. Following the Paris Principles (see info in the column to the left), these activities are organised in coordination with other national and international NGOs.
Preparing for the next HLF in Busan at the end of November 2011, Alliance2015 has produced five country briefs on the countries mentioned above plus a synthesis/analysis report of the five briefs - the Cross Country report Democratic Ownership beyond Busan - Building Inclusive Partnerships for Development.
