SSC AT THE BUSAN HLF-4

The Busan High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness has come to an end. After extended negotiations the development community has reached an agreement to form a new Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation.

The Outcome Document pledges to "broaden support for South-­South and  triangular cooperation, helping to tailor these horizontal partnerships to a greater diversity of country contexts and needs".

A Building Block on South-South Cooperation has been endorsed by nearly 30 countries and multilateral organizations with the support of an enthusiastic group of academia and practitioners present at Busan.
