Open Aid Partnership- Objectives Increase Aid Transparency and Citizen Engagement for Better Results Improve Aid Transparency: increase transparency through Open Data on aid flows and public service delivery Enhance Results: Better target, monitor, and coordinate aid flows within countries Establish Feedback Loop: Empower citizens and CSOs to provide direct feedback on project outcomes
All Bank-financed projects are mapped Maps for all 142 IBRD and IDA countries developed More than 30,000 project locations mapped combined with sub-national MDG indictors (poverty, infant mortality, malnutrition) Visualized geographic locations for 1,600 active Bank projects What we have done so far:Mapping for Results maps.worldbank.org
Mapping at Various Levels Regions Countries Projects Sectors maps.worldbank.org
