Summary, etc This is a report by Publish What You Fund, a global; campaign for aid transparency in light of the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted for the next fifteen years. In 2011, leading donors committed in Busan to make their aid transparent by the end of 2015 hence the 2016 Aid Transparency Index demonstrates whether that commitment has been met. The Index reveals that over half of the organisations included do not publish budget information for the next one to three years – a key demand of partner countries. Based on these findings, the report recommends that all publishers should recognise the right to information enshrined in the SDGs. Publishers should improve the quality and comprehensiveness of their data to provide a full picture of all development flows. This should be implemented along with strategies to realise the full potential of their data, using the IATI Standard as an opportunity to strengthen management systems, communication or serve accountability purposes better. Governments and civil society should work together to fill the gaps and advance open data and transparency in the development sector worldwide.
