  3. Donor Performance Assessment Framework (DPAF) • DPAF forms a part of a mutual review process designed to strengthen mutual accountability at the country level • Drawn from international and national agreements on the quality of development assistance to Rwanda (Rwanda’s Aid Policy, Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness, Accra Agenda for Action) • Reviews the performance of bilateral and multilateral donors against a set of established indicators on the quality and volume of development assistance to Rwanda • Launched in 2009 – the first DPAF undertaken for 2008 • Managed by MINECOFIN with technical support from UNDP

  4. Donor Performance Assessment Framework (DPAF) - results • Improvement seen at aggregate level on a number of indicators, while not yet meeting DPAF target • considerable efforts made by some DPs -incredible transformation of their ODA portfolio • Identifies areas of key challenges – use of country systems, predictability

  5. Donor Performance Assessment Framework (DPAF) – lessons learned • High-level of political commitments • Strong Government led process – GoR’s led verification, consultation, and validation • Presented both in aggregate form and disaggregated by donor to allow for comparison, individual reflection on performance, accountability and peer pressure • Clear annualized individual provider targets (allowing for regular monitoring and dialogue) • Analysis of results provides foundation for high-level dialogue (DPM) – allowing evidence-based conclusive, actionable dialogue • Targets set jointly and inclusively, and dialogue informs individual plan of actions (reviewed and monitored through Development Partners Retreat)

  6. Use of Development Assistance Database (DAD) for Donor Performance Assessment • DPAF and PD indicators are embedded in the DAD mainly at project/programme and actual disbursement level • Missions and analytic work (not project related) at Donor Profile Level • DPs report on indicators in the DAD • MINECOFIN produces DPAF report from DAD for verification and dialogue • Verification with Budget Department, Treasury Department, Central Bank, sector Ministries • Verified data is used for DPAF

  7. Use of Development Assistance Database (DAD) for Donor Performance Assessment

  8. Aid Transparency and Aid Information Management System – way forward • DPAF through the DAD enhanced comprehensiveness and quality of aid information captured in the DAD • DAD functionality strengthened to feed better the national planning, budgeting, and monitoring process • Integration of Chart of Account into DAD (strengthening linkages with SmartFMS) • Forward spending plans in donor profile • Direct execution expenditure/direct payment, NGO execution (report from sector Ministries/PIUs, NGOs) • Still, comprehensiveness, quality and timely reporting of aid remains a significant problem. • Advocate to PEFA Secretariat to expand the scope of PEFA indicator (D.2) for DPs to report all expenditure (beyond those executed by Government), breaking down by Government’s Budget Structure (sector classification)
