Mutual accountability is at the core of working together effectively. Transparent practices and evidence-based dialogue form the basis for enhanced accountability. Moreover, ensuring accountability towards the beneficiaries of co-operation and partnerships, as well as to the respective citizens, organisations, constituents and stakeholders, is an important enabler for realising the 2030 Agenda, given the increasing diversity of partners and complexity of sustainable development challenges.

 

Since 2014, three rounds of the Global Partnership monitoring were undertaken. The Global Partnership monitoring is a member-driven flagship instrument that tracks progress towards implementing the effectiveness principles, seeks to capture behavior change by focusing on how partners work together, and supports global accountability for implementing the effective development co-operation commitments. It is a multi-stakeholder, voluntary, and country-led process. In 2018, a record 86 governments led country level engagement in the Global Partnership's 2018 monitoring exercise. They were joined by more than 100 development partners and hundreds of civil society organizations, private sector representatives, foundations, trade unions, parliamentarians and local governments. 

 

Listed below are the reports and data generated from these monitoring rounds. In 2020-2022, a reform of the Global Partnership monitoring exercise will be undertaken to ensure that the monitoring exercise generates robust data and evidence to support accountability for Busan commitments, stimulate dialogue, drive behavior change and build political momentum more effective development co-operation. In addition, the Global Partnership will support the use of monitoring results by governments, development partners, and national stakeholders to spark follow up action and behavior change by all partners.
