Objet publié

This grant represents Canada’s support to Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation via the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The UNDP and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) provide secretariat support to the Global Partnership through the Joint Support Team, which helps implement the Global Partnership’s Programme of Work. The Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation (GPEDC) was established in 2012 as a unique multi-stakeholder platform comprising of member states (161, including Canada) and non-state actors (56). It aims to advance the effectiveness of development efforts by all actors, and help the delivery of results that are long-lasting and contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda. Since 2017, Canada has been a Steering Committee Member of the Global Partnership and represents a constituency that includes Australia, New Zealand and the United States. Project activities include (1) supporting the extended 2017-18 Global Partnership Programme of Work, including funding for the 2019 Senior Level Meeting; (2) supporting the next Programme Work and outputs of new work streams; and (3) enhancing coordination with the communities of practice known as Global Partnership Initiatives.
