Country
for
Aid and Development
Effectiveness
The IBON/Reality of Aid country outreach program for the broad
implementation of AAA seeks to achieve greater and more
meaningful involvement of CSOs in bringing change in aid
effectiveness policy and practice. The strategy towards this is
capacity development of CSOs in order for them to initiate policy
dialogue spaces that allow for broader and inclusive participation of
various kinds of CSOs at country and local level. These efforts are
expected to contribute to changes in policies along a development
effectiveness approach.
Country outreach work will be based on the country-level plans of
CSOs who are involved in aid effectiveness and development
effectiveness advocacy. A broad range of CSOs will be encouraged to
participate and work together to engage their respective
governments, parliaments and development partners in the
achievement and monitoring of AAA implementation.
RoA is the partner agency of the BetterAid in this program. IBON
International is implementing the outreach through the RoA
network.
