HOW GLOCIR WORKS IN ACCORDANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL AGREED PRINCIPLES FOR AID AND DEVELOPMENT EFFECTIVENESS.
GLOCIR works in compliance with international agreed principles for aid and development effectiveness in the following ways:
In regards to Ownership and alignment, GLOCIR through the national development plan of Cameroon front-line our own development. In a full democratic ownership, all institutions have operating working collaboration where there are no conflicting interestsand design policies adapted to each and everyone own requirements. GLOCIR also ensures that cooperation programs meet national development priorities, institutions and procedures. In this respect, GLOCIR ensures that capacity-building programs are of prime importance, particularly in fragile regions and communities, where aid is least effective.
In regards to transparency and mutual accountability, GLOCIR works with strict observations that all development partners are mutually accountable, this involves in particular sharing the same objectives, in line with Cameroons national development strategy, where available, and monitoring progress with reporting tools and indicators agreed by all partners.
All working partners through GLOCIR accountability to affected population policy are responsible to all target populations and beneficiaries regarding the way GLOCIR spends and uses development aid. Accountability in GLOCIR is harnessed through sound data collection and management. In ensuring transparency which is also at the core of the SDGs, GLOCIR always informs all partners in a sharing standardized data on development outcomes and interventions including through the IATI which makes it possible to exchange best practice and define the efforts needed at global level to achieving the goals.
In Partnerships for development, GLOCIR is keen to endorsing the need for harmonization in definition of development priorities which at the center ensures that implementation and reporting between aid providers and recipient engage in local community based coordination mechanism engaging local partners in a broader collaborative community based terms to ensure grant or aid effectiveness. In line with view of the Global Partnership for effective development cooperation (GPEDC), GLOCIR brings together the widest possible range of local development players in line with our stakeholder and partnership policy ensuring wider development impact at a localized community based level.
In Public-private partnerships, GLOCIR also takes the shape of implementation through public-private partnerships (PPPs), where the private party delivers a service or a product on behalf of the government, often with a combination of private and public funding in keen application of GLOCIR stakeholder and partnership policy and the Kampala principles for private sector engagement, adopted by the Global Partnership for effective development cooperation in 2019.
