DELIVERING BETTER TOGETHER FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT - LEVERAGING EFFECTIVE DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION

On 5 and 6 December partners convened in Seoul around the four effectiveness principles – country ownership, a focus on results, inclusiveness, and mutual accountability – to catalyze progress on the SDGs:  

  • By bringing diverse development actors together in a principle-led approach, fostering trust; and
  • By generating data for an evidence-based approach, empowering country-level policy action   
  • to achieve more effective development co-operation for more sustainable development results.

ABOUT THE BUSAN PARTNERSHIP FORUM

 

Twelve years ago, the Republic of Korea hosted the Fourth High-Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness, establishing the Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation (GPEDC) to promote the implementation and monitoring of the Effectiveness Principles: country ownership, focusing on results, inclusive partnerships, and transparency and mutual accountability.  

Since then, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea has been hosting the Busan Global Partnership Forum to facilitate multi-stakeholder discussions on the principles and international development cooperation more broadly. The Forum has proven a valuable venue for policy-makers and practitioners from across the world to share experiences as they work together towards the 2030 Agenda.
