The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness

The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness was developed to encourage aids to those countries which need it from countries that have resources to provide the aid. The main aim for The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness was to achieve aid effectiveness, to give support for countries that provide aid, and to strengthen their government so they could more productively work and support other. But despite of the fact that this declarations was worked up with due diligence and with aim to work in real life, not only on paper, there are a few points which weren’t achieved. Those recommendations which weren’t achieved mostly were about partnership, monitoring, systems of negotiations and multi-stakeholder mechanism.

The first recommendation of which I would like to look at is about donor imposed policy. This recommendation is framework for collaboration that effects all other fields that are achieved and not achieved after creation of The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness. The main aim, which is constantly underlined in the declaration, is about that that partner countries and donor countries need to work together to establish mutually agreed frameworks. The donor countries and the partner countries need to work together and reach results that would be satisfying for both sides. The Declaration is created with the aim to not put at the forefront only donor countries, donor countries need to reckon with the partner countries. This relationship between the donor countries and the partner countries is mutual, because, from the partner countries are expected to act just like the donor countries- with the respect of other actions. That is the reason why according to the declaration both sides are agreed to following points, first of...

To sum up, The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness was created to make easier partnership between the donors and the partner countries, to increase the CSO impact, to promote system of monitoring and evaluating. But despite the detailed points of the Declaration, not all were achieved. As the main reason why they are not achieved, I would like to mention the big role of the donors. They have access to large amount of resources and they have political and economical impact, what they use to gain what they want. Till the donors will not stop using their power to gain benefits for themselves, and will start to take into account the partner countries and the CSO and others, until that the defined points in The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness will not be achieved
