Independent Review of Aid Effectiveness
An independent review of Australia's aid and development program, the first since 1996, is currently underway. This review will examine the effectiveness and efficiency of Australia's aid and guide the strategic direction of Australia's aid program.
PIA has been involved in a number of Australian aid programs and drawing on these experiences PIA has developed a submission to assist the panel in the review of aid effectiveness.
To be completed by April this year, the Independent Review of Aid Effectiveness is designed to maximise the effectiveness of the aid program, as Australia increases its Official Development Assistance to 0.5 per cent of Gross National Income by 2015-16.
