The Joint Governance Assessment and Measurement Project is a multi-donor initiative working towards the integration of governance into all projects and programs in Ethiopia. The project addresses the availability and reliability of public access to governance indicators, studies and diagnostics in Ethiopia. Under the leadership of the World Bank, the Department for International Development (DFID), the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the Royal Netherlands Embassy, this project aims to provide a consistent framework and a better understanding of the state of governance in Ethiopia. Ultimately, its intention is to enable CIDA and other development partners to fully integrate governance into programming priorities and foster a more informed and harmonized dialogue on governance with the Government of Ethiopia (Ministry of Finance and Economic Development, Prime Minister's Office, Federal Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission), civil society and other development partners. The initiative provides an opportunity to address weak or missing dimensions of governance in poverty reduction strategies, to adjust national programs and reforms under implementation and to demonstrate commitment towards improved governance in the country. All CIDA disbursements for this project have been completed and the results of our investment are outlined below.
