2011 Aid Transparency Index
The 2011 pilot Aid Transparency Index collects for the first time primary data on aid transparency levels, with help from civil society organisations (CSOs) in 34 countries. The Index assesses the availability of specific information
items at organisational, country and activity level for 58
donor organisations, including bilateral and multilateral
donors, International Financial Institutions (IFIs) and private foundations. It then ranks these donors by assigning
scores for whether specific aid information was published
combined with an organisational level assessment of
whether the donor is participating in the International Aid Transparency Initiative and whether
they have a Freedom of Information law (or equivalent
disclosure policy).
