Comments (Linkages, disaggregation and sources) Sources: OECD Limitations: Data not currently available Linkages: N/A. Disaggregation by: country. Sources: OECD (Creditor Reporting System). Limitations: Data only available by country.
Comments: A more specific indicator needs to be developed that tracks Official Development Assistance (ODA) funds that reach local governments. This should include OECD-DAC and non-DAC donors. See also proposed SDSN (July, 2014) indicators 104, 105 and 106.
13. Disaggregation by: North-South. Code 15112 in the CRS defined as: Decentralisation processes (including political, administrative and fiscal dimensions); intergovernmental relations and
federalism; strengthening departments of regional and local government, regional and local authorities and their national associations. Decentralisation of sector management and services is not included in this category. The CRS code refers to the purpose of the project (strengthen local governments) rather than resources channelled to local governments. The information on channels in the CRS considers the general public sector without distinguishing local and central governments. The proposed data source only tracks OECD-DAC donor contributions, excluding the possibility to track ODA from non-OECD donors, thus South-South, and triangular cooperation. Definitions of South-South, North-South and triangular cooperation need to be clarified.
