Open Aid Partnership- Objectives

• Improve Aid Transparency: increase transparency through Open Data on aid flows and public service delivery

• Enhance Results: Better target, monitor, and coordinate aid flows within countries

• Establish Feedback Loop: Empower citizens and CSOs to provide direct feedback on project outcomes

Increase Aid Transparency and Citizen Engagement for Better Results

• All Bank-financed projects are mapped

• Maps for all 144 IBRD and IDA countries developed

• More than 30,000 project locations mapped combined with sub-national MDG indictors (poverty, infant mortality, malnutrition)

• Visualized geographic locations for 2,500 active Bank projects
