Action plan for development effectiveness 2014-2016
Objectives of the development effectiveness action plan
The objectives listed below are aligned to a large extent with the Global Partnership monitoring framework, while adding some objectives specific to Luxembourg’s development cooperation:
- Quantity and quality
- Concentration policy
- Inclusive partnerships
- Alignment
- Predictability
- Transparency and mutual accountability
- Coordination and harmonisation
- Taxation and mobilisation of internal resources
The action plan includes a matrix to monitor the use of the principles of aid effectiveness and takes stock of relationships with the partner countries using these principles:
- Use of national systems
- Taxation and mobilisation of internal resources
- Triangular and South/South cooperation
- Cooperation with the private sector in the partner countries
- Cooperation with civil society in the partner countries
The action plan will be reviewed in 2016 in the light of the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the progress made. By then, the objectives and principles will have been integrated systematically and to the greatest possible extent in the new Indicative Cooperation Programmes with the partner countries and in the other tools connecting Luxembourg’s development cooperation with its partners.
