Financial Support to the Programme of Work and Budget of the OECD Development Assistance Committee for the years 2017 - 2018

The next two years are crucial to set the scene for implementing SDGs. The DAC has on one hand to continue its core mandate (ODA, reviews, policies and good development practices) and on the other hand to adapt in order to achieve the 2030 Agenda.

The DAC is well positioned and sufficiently funded, notably through SDC’s contribution, to respond to the main expectations of its members -firstly Switzerland- and partners, including development countries, and to adapt for SDG implementation.

OECD DAC members, including Switzerland (SDC and SECO), and partners

• SDG implementation has been integrated into the activities and the structure of the DAC
• Main activities and projects of the DAC networks have been achieved through sufficient funding, notably from SDC.

Expected results:  

Financial pathway towards the 2030 Agenda:

• Global Outlook on Financing for Development is delivered.

• Statistics on financing for development are enhanced

12 DAC peer reviews are achieved and the annual Development co-operation report is delivered.

Policy reviews and guidance on supporting implementation of SDG 16 are delivered.

A member-steered anti-corruption and integrity platform is established

Policy guidance on implementing the SDGs for women and girls is henanced established.

Political engagement, analysis, evidence and guidance on global commitments to “leave no one behind” in fragile, at-risk and crisis affected contexts are reinforced.

States of fragility report is achieved

Policy dialogues and reviews on good practices with providers beyond the Committee’s membership are achieved.  

Multi-stakeholder ptaform monitoring the effectiveness of development co-operation has contributed to measurement of SDG targets for Goals 5 and 17.

Results from previous phases:  

• Main objectives of previous DAC programmes of work (reforms of the ODA/TOSSD and peer reviews in particular), were regulary achieved.
• In 2015-16, the work of some of the networks was disrupted due to a funding model that didn’t include their work under the “core priorities” of the PWB. As for the first time the PWB budget was seriously underfunded, this prioritization took effect leaving the networks without funding in the middle of the PWB period.
