  1. UNDP/TIKA PROJECT TIKA A under SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION Project Title: Bridging South-South Cooperation and Emerging Donor Roles: Strengthen Turkey’s Participation in International Development Cooperation A brief introduction to the project by: Dr. Sebahattin GAZANFER Senior Project Advisor 9th October 2008

  2. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT What is South-South Cooperation? > A broad framework for collaborationamong countries of the South in the political, economic,social, environmental and technical domains. > Semi-independent entity established by the UN-GA in 1978. Hosted in UNDP since then. > Primary mandate: to promote, coordinate and support South-South and triangular cooperation on a Global and United Nations system-wide basis.

  3. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT Framework in which the international cooperation for development is based Summary of recent developments related to MDGs In 2000:Millennium Declaration adopted (MDGs estalished) clear targets, around which international development will focus, were defined. In 2002:Monterrey Consensus underlined the importance of aid effectiveness In 2003:Rome Declaration on Harmonization more efforts were urgently needed from donors and recipients to meet the MDGs. In 2004:2nd International Roundtable on MfDR(Marrakesh).Main focus areas: how to improve aid effectiveness,harmonizationandalignmentto national development strategies, public financial management (including aid predictability), procurement, and managing for development results.

  4. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT In 2005:2nd High-Level Forum (HLF) on Aid Effectiveness (Paris) brought donors and partners who resolved to establish concrete benchmarks to make aid more effective. Paris Declaration: a series of commitments were approved based on principles of ownership, alignment, harmonisation, managing for results and mutual accountability. In Sep 2008:3rd High-Level Forum (HLF) on Aid Effectiveness (Accra/Ghana) brought donors and partners who resolved to establish concrete benchmarks to make aid more effective.

  5. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT Outcome of the ACCRA AGENDA for ACTION Developing countries have committed to take control of their own futures, Donors have committed to co-ordinate better amongst themselves, and Both parties to the Agenda have pledged to account to each other and to their citizens.

  6. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT SOUTH-SOUTH PROJECT AND TURKEY Turkey; > is becoming an advanced MIC, > is capable of achieving the targets of the MDGs, > despite important regional disparities, does not face the challenge of absolute poverty(less than 2% of the total population live under the level of absolute poverty).

  7. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT Turkey’s emerging donor role is important because; > Turkey is an important driving force for its immediate region due to the spill-over effect of its economic activity and dynamism. > The international community, including UNDP, can take advantage of these externalities by promoting the effectiveness of Turkey’s technical development interventions and maximising as well the positive effects of its programmes within the region and with other LDCs. > Partnership with other MICs and with international development organisations, such as UNDP, will influence global economic/development actors to consider their “voice” and needs of MICs (their needs and their solutions) in shaping the global development agenda to eradicate poverty and to contribute to the fulfilment of the MDGs.

  8. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT Turkey is in a unique position to provide expert knowledge to the development community, particularly in Balkans, the Middle East and in the largely Turkish-speaking Central Asian region, because; >Turkey was a former recipient country, >Turkey has deep cultural linkages, During the recent years, Turkey extended its development assistance to Africa, as well.

  9. UNDP/TIKA SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION PROJECT The project aims at contributing to Turkey’s aid effectiveness and therefore to increase the impact of its aid interventions through the development of TIKA’s capacities on the new trends and methodologies of the International Development System.
