The CSO Partnership for Development Effectiveness (CPDE) is currently implementing a threeyear
programme entitled: ‘Civil Society Continuing Campaign for Effective Development’.
The programme aims to make concrete contributions to global development by promoting
development effectiveness, through concrete CSO action, utilizing a mix of approaches in
policy advocacy, engagement, outreach, and capacity development at global, regional, subregional
and national levels.
The Global Synthesis Report (SR) 2016 is one in a series of efforts to take stock of the progress
in implementing effective development cooperation in the global regions and sectors. The
SR presents country case studies from the different regions and sectors, which will serve
as evidence for anticipated engagement at the Second High-Level Meeting (HLM-2) of the
Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation (GPEDC).
