On the 5th and 6th of July in New York, U.S.A.,
development partners will convene at the United Nations Development Cooperation Forum (UN-DCF).
Meeting every 2 years, the UN-DCF is a multi-stakeholder platform that enables all development actors - including civil society - to voice their priorities and influence political action and realities of international development cooperation.
This year, the UN-DCF will focus on 4 objectives:
1. Sustainable development
2. Aid allocations and aid results
3. South‐South Cooperation
4. Mutual accountability between donors and programme countries
A dedicated CSO task force is coordinating civil society participation to the UN-DCF, including the CSO-run side events on: Human Rights-Based Approach and Gender.
Furthermore, in relation to Objective 4 and to emphasize that " Accountability is Everyone’s Business ", Open Forum is disseminating our flyer for the event:

International Framework Flyer for UNDCF 2012: Accountability is Everyone’s Business: INTERNATIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR CSO DEVELOPMENT EFFECTIVENESS: Commitment of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) as independent development actors to be fully accountable for their development practices Download here |
We invite you to circulate the flyer widely to your network, in particular those attending the UN-DCF.
