Aid Activities in Asia

Aid Activities in Asia is OECD’s annual report providing detailed information on individual commitments, i.e. intended disbursements, of foreign aid to Asian countries for the year. It records the commitments reported by countries represented in the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) and by multilateral institutions to the CRS Aid Activity database (Creditor Reporting System). For each commitment listed, data are provided on the recipient country, the donor country, the type of aid, the amount committed in US dollars, the purpose description and code, the percentage that is a grant, and whether the commitment has any gender, environmental, or participatory development/good governance aspects. These annual reports have now been discontinued, but the database continues to be maintained and is available online.
