Open Aid Partnership- Objectives
• Improve Aid Transparency: increase
transparency through Open Data on aid
flows and public service delivery
• Enhance Results: Better target, monitor,
and coordinate aid flows within countries
• Establish Feedback Loop: Empower
citizens and CSOs to provide direct
feedback on project outcomes
Increase Aid Transparency and Citizen Engagement for Better Results
What we have done so far:
Mapping for Results
• All Bank-financed projects are mapped
• Maps for all 144 IBRD and IDA countries
developed
• More than 30,000 project locations mapped
combined with sub-national MDG indictors
(poverty, infant mortality, malnutrition)
• Visualized geographic locations for 2,500
active Bank projects

Are health projects in areas with the
highest infant mortality?
Key Components of Partnership

• Citizen Feedback Loops to promote citizen
engagement in the delivery of public services
• Capacity Development to empower CSOs and
Citizens to effectively use and generate data
• Impact Evaluations to assess the impact of
open aid on development outcomes

donor-financed
projects based on
IATI standard
• Joint Open Aid
Map for better aid
coordination
