بالفعل تحول هام يجب متابعته. حينها، حتى الكلام عن مكافحة الفساد كان إشكاليا في أغلب المنطقة. اليوم هناك قوانين افضل وهيئات متخصصة واستراتيجيات وطنية ونشاط متنوع، والطموح أن نرى نتائج ملموسةأكثر تعزز التنمية وتحسّن حياة الناس. الأردن 🇯🇴 كان في صدارة الدول التي ساعدت على كسر الجمود الإقليمي واحداث التحول.

Donor coordination is necessary, especially in today's world where we all have to do more with less. Yes, but it is easier said than done. No one disagrees. It is critical for humanitarian assistance and development effectiveness. It must be done. Then comes the real question: HOW? This #GIRAF session by @ElGherbalOrg brought together great panelists and provided useful insights. Here are some 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 ☑️ Coordination is not just a technical question, it is also political. It is not solved by a dashboard. It requires government leadership, donor leadership, frank dialogues, societal engagement, an appetite for risk and compromise, an understanding of competing interests and readiness to seek related alignments. ☑️ Coordination also requires data. Transparency is key and so is the need for related standards, quality checks and verification processes. ☑️ Coordination is most impactful when it goes beyond simple exchanges of information on "projects". It can be used to inform strategic planning, shape advocacy messages, and support accountability. ☑️ Coordination cannot take place without mutual trust. Building that trust is a process and it can be very challenging. It is almost impossible to achieve without regular meetings, safe spaces, and competent facilitators. ☑️ Coordination must be anchored in some level of national planning on the side of both the donors and the recipients, but what happens when one is missing? Well, not much coordination! ☑️ Coordination is not a zero sum game: either all agree on everything or no one agrees on anything. There will always be different views, interests, and realities at play. Coordination helps create a track record for learning, accountability and innovation, but then again, maybe not everybody is interested in that 🤷🏻‍♂️❗ Thanks again for El Gherbal and the wonderful panelists. I will be looking forward to build on our discussions as we seek to advance our regional work at @UNDPArabStates and @UNDP_ACIAC on transparency and accountability in recovery and reconstruction.
