From Marrakech to Busan James Whitworth CCSA meeting, 7 – 9 September 2011
MAPS: job done? YES!!!but …. • Strategic planning: good take-up of concept, but mixed results in implementation, “misalignment” between donor actions and NSDS. • 2010 census round: impressive results, but complementary actions needed. • Increased funding: yes, but too “fragmented” and “concentrated”. • IHSN / ADP: good progress, but are we making full use of existing data? • Improvements in MDG monitoring: more “2 data points” instances, but are MDGs relevant in countries? • Accountability of international system: Principles for IOs, but is more needed (e.g. co-ordination)? From Marrakech to Busan
What’s new? • Financial crisis:mixed signals on funding levels, but increased pressure to demonstrate success. • Partnership, more South – South co-operation:changing relationships,emerging countries becoming leaders amongst their peers (e.g. South Africa, Brazil). • Global programmes:some well integrated into MAPS philosophy, others not. • World-wide development indicators:do not fulfil country needs; move towards country specific indicators.
