SWG meetings for 2008 Problems and difficulties encountered • Some SWG have not met during the year • Donors and LM not totally involved in the process (feedbacks, minutes, materials, analysis, project proposals, commitments) • Difficulties when 2 LM are involved • Donors request individual meetings with LMs; there are cases when DSDC is not informed • SWG performance measurement (targets, products, indicators) – should be focused on results; need to apply Paris Indicators to the sector level and use them to monitor progress in each sector
External Assistance Updating Donor Database - Problems and difficulties encountered during 2008 • Partial reporting from some donors (most data lacking the actual disbursement rates or provisions for the next year/s) • Some donors did not report and some others reported very late • Reporting format some times not compatible to the DSDC required data.
