Where Next? Setting the Agenda for Partnership to 2015
Realising Asia 's ambition to eradicate poverty within a generation calls for new kinds of partnership between governments, donors and civil society in Asia.
Evolving development partnerships
Aid relationships need rethinking to accommodate the expected progression of some Asian countries to middle-income status. ‘Scaling up' successful development programmes requires increased resource flows that are delivered in a coordinated and harmonised way. In the longer term, development cooperation needs to evolve into wider partnerships based on mutual interests, which go beyond the confines of aid to include trade, debt relief, security and management of the environment.
We aim to:
• Examine the potential for new development partnerships between governments, civil society and donors in Asia and OECD countries to promote sustainable development
• Analyse the implications of recent commitments from donors to coordinate aid better and to align development assistance more clearly with national priorities for poverty reduction
• Promote Asian leadership in driving development in the region and globally.
