“The U.K. Department for International Development launches an online discussion to seek input on how it should implement the UKaid Transparency Guarantee.
The U.K. Department for International Development has opened an online discussion to help it decide how to implement its aid transparency initiative.
The UKaid Transparency Guarantee forms part of the coalition government’s commitment to boost the transparency of DfID aid. As reported by Devex, U.K. Secretary of State for International Development Andrew Mitchell announced the guarantee, along with the intention to create an independent aid watchdog, in June.
DfID is urging civil society groups, think tanks and other organizations working on transparency to send an e-mail to aidtransparency@dfid.gov.uk if they wish to contribute to the discussion.”
