Thank you for joining the conversation to help shape the Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation’s next programme of work! This group has been created to facilitate conversation around Supporting country-led development effectiveness of South-South Co-operation, which was agreed as crucial to for the next generation GPEDC through Steering Committee endorsement of the Co-Chairs’ Proposal for Strategic Priorities.
Action Area 2.3: Supporting country-led development effectiveness of South-South co-operation
The need to increase development effectiveness of South-South co-operation (SSC) was recognised at the BAPA+40. South-South co-operation partners are already undertaking various initiatives in this area. For example, the Government of Mexico, under the auspices of the Global Partnership, has developed a pilot approach to monitor the effectiveness of its co-operation. Building on this pilot approach, the Global Partnership can leverage its expertise in the area of country-led monitoring and its support to development of an adapted approach to monitoring, to lend its technical support to South-South co-operation partners as they implement BAPA+40 commitments and engage in policy dialogue and mutual learning.
Additional consultation around this action area will begin in early 2020. In the meantime, we encourage you to share any preliminary thoughts on how the work might develop over the coming months, or any specific guiding questions you may have. We would specifically encourage your thoughts on relevant outcomes, outputs or activities that should be included in the planning for this action area, especially those that could inform the template for project proposals agreed after the 18th Steering Committee in Seoul (deadline for submission of consolidated proposals is 21 February 2020).
Formal consultation around this action area will begin in early 2019. In the meantime, we encourage you to share any preliminary thoughts on how the work might develop over the coming months, or any specific guiding questions you may have. Any questions on this consultation may be directed to: info@effectivecooperation.org.
We look forward to engaging with you as this work takes shape!
