The Working Party on Aid Effectiveness: Sector approaches

Health as a Tracer Sector (HATS)

 

 

Monitoring progress in the health sector as part of the implementation of the Paris Declaration and Accra Agenda for Action

 

The AAA stresses the need to maximise the impact of aid in order to contribute to achieving the Millennium Development Goals.

The objectives of strengthening country ownership and building more effective and inclusive partnerships refer to sector activities. Delivering and accounting for development results is critical for the health sector which continues to offer important illustrations of progress and remaining bottlenecks, particularly in the area of predictability.

Objectives

  • Disseminate the aid effectiveness agenda at the sector level with the active involvement of practitioners in order to achieve better results, including contribution to reaching the health-related MDGs, and improving quality of life
  • Encourage further implementation of the Paris Declaration and AAA in a sector which is particularly complex and fragmented and which benefits from high-level support and public attention
  • Transfer the lessons from the health sector to other sectors/areas including global initiatives/approaches/partnerships in areas such as environment, agriculture, education or water.
