3. Learning from Paris Survey • Progress is happening in the right direction, but too slowly : only one target met • Aid effectiveness matters for development: relevance and impact beyond aid • A successful international “compact” for reform - legitimacy of norms and standards • Need to sustain the political momentum • Greater accountability and learning through monitoring and evaluation

4. Busan Partnership Agreement “We will hold each other accountable for making progress against the commitments and actions agreed in Busan, alongside those set out in the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness and Accra Agenda for Action”. “At the level of individual developing countries, agree on frameworks based on national needs and priorities for monitoring progress and promoting mutual accountability in our efforts to improve the effectiveness of our cooperation and, in turn, development results…” “ Agree, by June 2012, on a selective and relevant set of indicators and targets through which we will monitor progress on a rolling basis, supporting international and regional accountability for the implementation of our commitments. We will build on the initiatives led by developing countries and learn from existing international efforts to monitor aid effectiveness….” A consultative multi-stakeholder process led to the approval of the Global Partnership monitoring framework (10 indicators and targets) in June 2012.
