It describes the Government of Vietnam’s strong ownership of the development process, examines the roles of key multilateral and bilateral donor institutions, and makes recommendations on reform that will further strengthen ownership.

This is not a commissioned report published from a centralised international organisation, but a compilation of the findings of civil society organisations working on social issues, on how their authorities are implementing the programs that they have committed themselves to in international fora like the Social Summit, the Beijing Conference on Women and the Millennium Summit. </p> <p>Those findings by citizen groups are complemented with statistics and innovative indexes developed by Social Watch researchers, such as the Basic Capabilities Index and the Gender Equity Index.</p> <p>The main theme of this year’s Social Watch report is the international financial architecture and how it needs to be reformed in order to create an enabling environment for the achievement of the internationally agreed development goals</p> <p>Click <a href="http://www.socialwatch.org/en/informeImpreso/index.htm">here</a> to view the full report</p> <script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"> </script><br /> <script type="text/javascript"> _uacct = "UA-1467975-1"; urchinTracker(); </script><br /> Absorption Accountability Aid Architecture All regions Conditionality Donor Coordination Mechanisms Gender Good Humanitarian Donorship Harmonisation & Alignment Humanitarian Aid Quality Macro impacts/Dutch Disease Ownership Vertical Programmes/Global Initiatives Tue, 09 Jan 2007 12:34:07 +0000
