Download or read book DAC Guidelines and Reference Series Harmonising Donor Practices for Effective Aid Delivery Volume 2 written by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Development Assistance Committee and published by OECD. This book was released on 2003 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international community is committed to helping partner countries meet the Millennium Development Goal of halving global poverty by 2015. Effective use of scarce official development assistance is one important contribution to this end. This is why the development community, under the auspices of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), is dedicated to implementing improvements in aid practices that deliver more effective and harmonised support to the efforts of partner countries. The good practices presented here have been designed to respond to this concern. They represent a set of practical steps that – if applied by development agencies – should significantly improve the effectiveness of development assistance. Following the first volume of good practices published in 2003, this second volume focuses more specifically on good practice in providing budget support (Chapter 2) and support to sector-wide approaches (Chapter 3). In doing so, it acknowledges the special relevance of public financial management issues for both of these modalities of aid delivery. This is why the last chapter of this volume (Chapter 4) is devoted to setting out good practice in providing support to capacity development for public financial management. The chapters are complemented by a substantive annex that outlines a proposed approach to supporting improved public financial management performance. In the same collection: Volume 1: Harmonising Donor Practices for Effective Aid Delivery Volume 2: Harmonising Donor Practices for Effective Aid Delivery: Budget Support, Sector Wide Approaches and Capacity Development in Public Financial Management Volume 3: Harmonising Donor Practices for Effective Aid Delivery: Strengthening Procurement Capacities in Developing Countries The first volume in this collection on Harmonising Donor Practices for Effective Aid Delivery (ISBN 9264199829) was published in May 2003 without a volume number.

Download or read book The Organ Donor Experience written by Katrina Bramstedt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite starting slowly with some academic jargon about altruism and people's motivations to donate organs, the book quickly takes a right turn and gets interesting. The authors sprinkle little informative tidbits along the way-Asian-Americans constituted only 3.4% of U.S. donors-and bring their points alive through little vignettes when examining the origins of altruism. The authors would make brilliant sales reps: they put forth a convincing argument about what a great humanitarian effort living donation is then patiently explain the evaluation process to reassure readers of the minimal costs. The few downsides are reviewed and discussed-for example, how to deal with family members who do not support the decision to donate or the devastation donors might experience when a recipient dies. Resources, bibliography, and index occupy a full 36 pages, yet for the most part this book escapes the drudgery of a research-laden study and instead reads as a fascinating story about a very human issue.
