Contexte In an international context marked by increased concerns about climate change, persisting inequalities, protracted conflicts, growing distrust towards governmental institutions and multilateralism, official development assistance (ODA) is at a critical juncture. Even more so as the development cooperation landscape is marked by a growing diversity of financing sources, providers and forms of cooperation which not only opens new avenues but also requires sustained collaboration and dialogue for maximizing impact towards sustainable development. In this evolving context, the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) is a key institution for catalyzing support for the realization of the 2030 Agenda in developing countries. As member of the DAC, Switzerland is actively involved in shaping the work and priorities of the DAC and its subsidiary bodies for it to remain fit for purpose.
Objectifs To strenghten and transform development cooperation to deliver the 2030 Agenda, leaving no one behind (OECD DAC, Programme of Work and Budget 2019-2020).

Key results and insights from previous phase

 

In 2017-2018, Switzerland actively engaged in the DAC working parties and policy networks. Key achievements include:

 

  • Switzerland’s DAC peer review successfully conducted;
  • Credible ODA statistical system maintained;
  • Increased emphasis on accountability towards partner countries (vs domestic accountability) and steering and learning based on results;
  • Switzerland successfully advocated for the DAC results community to concretise results monitoring of Leaving no one behind (LNOB). The work on LNOB in the results community led to the OECD choosing LNOB as topic for the 2018 Development Cooperation Report;
  • Concrete products published and disseminated by the  GENDERNET and GOVNET (co-chaired by Switzerland) allowing the DAC to remain a key actor on gender and governance issues;
  • Increased external engagement and political role of the International network on conflict and fragility (INCAF) within the international system; positions of members as critical stakeholders in global development discussions amplified; greater shared progress towards the implementation of the 2030 Agenda in fragile and conflict-affected states.
