1 Programme of Work and Budget of OECD s Development Co-operation Directorate This is an excerpt from the 2003/4 Programme of Work and Budget [C/PWB(2003)1] as is circulated for information. This relates to Item 6i) of the Agenda of the DAC Working Party on Aid Evaluation meeting March th meeting March 2003

2 OUTPUT GROUP 5.1 DEVELOPMENT Responsible DSG: Mr. Seiichi Kondo Responsible Director: Mr. Michael Roeskau Output Group Description: Development co-operation seeks to enhance the development process in non-oecd economies through better targeting of external resources. In keeping with partnership principles, external inputs should fold into country-owned strategies, or aim at building the necessary capacity in the case of conflict countries and "difficult partnerships". Impacts on development are ultimately to be measured against the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The Development Assistance Committee (DAC) is concerned with development cooperation. The DAC represents bilateral donors accounting for over 90% of worldwide ODA, and works towards broader coalitions with multilateral donors and with developing countries. With a broad policy consensus in place after Doha, Monterrey and Johannesburg, the DAC will deliver outputs in 2003/04 that are focused on implementation and improving aid effectiveness. Better co-ordination of donor contributions will be sought, both through good practice papers as regards concepts, and through monitoring of instruments and procedures of aid delivery. Aid effectiveness will be further improved through statistical monitoring and mutual learning by peer review and evaluation. Policy coherence is a major determinant of aid effectiveness. While this is a broader responsibility involving the "whole of government" and hence, all of OECD, this Output Group will deliver results on trade capacity building and the role of the private sector in collaboration with other policy communities. The OECD supports these aims through its Liaison Network on policy coherence for development.

16 OUTPUT H HORIZONTAL PROJECT ON POLICY COHERENCE K EUR Expected Outcomes: ƒ ƒ ƒ Improved understanding of how OECD Member countries different policies, across sectors such as: trade; investment; agriculture; environment; and development co-operation, impact on the development and competitiveness of developing countries. Increased acceptance of policy coherence for development as an important horizontal issue for policy-making by a larger number of Member countries. Through ongoing OECD monitoring, recommendations and peer review, implementation of coherent policies by Member countries that in the longer term contribute to the improved development and competitiveness of developing countries. Policy Context and Project Description: Through the Doha Development Agenda, the Monterrey Consensus, and the World Summit on Sustainable Development, the international community has agreed on a specific set of development goals. Policy coherence for development aims to ensure that OECD governments as a whole pursue policies that support (and do not undermine) other efforts they are making to help the development process. For example, trade actions that reduce current income and potential growth in developing countries run counter to aid policies that develop countries export capacity. The notion of policy coherence also embraces the broader agenda of consciously taking account of the needs and interests of developing countries in the evolution of the global economy. To address such policy issues across relevant policy communities, under the responsibility of the Deputy Secretary-General, senior liaison network across the range of OECD output groups, will implement the mandate emerging from the 2002 Ministerial statement on development. It called upon the OECD to enhance understanding of the development dimensions of Member country policies and their impacts on developing countries. Analysis should consider trade-offs and potential synergies across such areas as trade, investment, agriculture, health, education, the environment and development co-operation, to encourage greater policy coherence in support of the internationally agreed development goals. Through the co-ordination of this liaison network, the output results of analytical work on the key policy areas will indicate how to improve Policy Coherence for development at the national and international levels. Emphasis will be put on policy relevant results that provide help to policymakers and strengthen the knowledge base on which to build political will. Accountability: Deputy Secretary General Kondo Project Duration: Initial stage: 2-3 years 16
