This report is a result of a collaboration between the Development Co-operation Directorate (DCD) and the Centre for international Development (CID) at the Korea Development Institute (KDI). Korea provided funding for the exercise.
It would have not been possible without the sustained engagement of the Development Assistance Committee Members.
For OECD, the exercise was co-ordinated by Anjeza Llulla and Jenny Baracaldo Fernández, with support from Soon Yeol Chung. Renwick Irvine, Team Lead Peer Reviews, oversaw the report. The report was prepared under the supervision of Robin Ogilvy, Head of Division, Reforms and Partnerships for Development Impact, and Pilar Garrido, Director of DCD. For KDI, Jee Hee Yoon oversaw the exercise and led the partnership with the OECD, under the leadership of Jungwook Kim (Executive Director, CID) and Hokyung Bang (Director, Division of Development Research). KDI contributed background research and substantive inputs to the Korea country note, with Kyunglim Shin reviewing the report, Jiyu Ha supporting background research for the Korea country note, and other CID colleagues contributing to the broader background research.
Anjeza Llulla led the research and data analysis for the report and was lead author of Chapters 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 as well as the Australia, Italy, the Netherlands country notes. Jenny Baracaldo Fernández was lead author of Chapter 4 and the Colombia and Korea country notes, and contributed to Chapter 3.
