Australia has made good progress since the last peer review in improving the overall predictability of its aid, in negotiating mutually-accountable high-level partnerships with its priority countries and aligning the objectives of its co-operation to partners’ development priorities. In addition, Australia’s aid is fully untied. To increase the quality of its assistance further, in line with commitments made in the Busan Partnership for Effective Development, Australia needs to makes its country level aid allocations more transparent and predictable over the medium-term. It also needs to achieve the objective it has set for using country systems and increase, more broadly, the share of aid provided through programme-based approaches, while continuing to analyse and manage the risks it needs to take in order to achieve development results.
