Dear users, as referred to during the infopoint sesson, you will find herewith the  article by Luca De Fraia and Iza Toth on CPDE website: Introducing the EU report on the implementation of the effectiveness principles.

Extract from Iza Toth speech at the info point session (final words):

"The EU report offers reflections and recommendations and the effort of the EU is praised. Speaking towards a better future, with more inclusive collaboration on the agenda, that includes the

civic voice and agency at country level, I encourage the EU representative in the upcoming OECD DAC High Level Meeting in Paris on the 10th November next, to continue manifesting the EU’s leadership on the agenda. That event is an unprecedented opportunity offered to revitalise development effectiveness at DAC level, within the “Doing Development Better” aim. We, CSOs, are committed to continue the fruitful and active collaboration with the institutions, in and out of the Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation, for a better future for all."
