The III High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness (HLF), held in Accra (Ghana) early this September, was conceived of as an opportunity to take stock of the implementation of the 2005 Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness half way towards its target date of 2011.
Originally, the Forum was to focus on providing a technical assessment of the progress made and obstacles encountered thus far, based on the recent monitoring and evaluation reports of the Development Assistance Committee (OECD/DAC).
However, due to ongoing profound changes in North-South relations and a complex consultation process with both partner countries and CSO, the Accra HLF became an excellent opportunity to continue renegotiating the global governance of aid, covering political issues affecting aid relationships.
