What is the objective of the “indicator clinics”? Understanding of the rationale and methodology for each indicator Discussions National coordinators will be invite - based on their experience during the first round and/or on their country context – to discuss about the possible measurement challenges and ways to address them.

Recap : key points of the data collection and validation process The national co-ordinator oversees the collection and validtion of country- sourced data (indicators 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9b). Ideally, most/part of the required data should be available in national data systems (e.g. AIMS). When data is not available, the national co-ordinator is invited to liaise with other stakeholders – providers of development co-operation, civil society organisations, private sector, trade unions – to collect data. It is recommended that the national co-ordinator agree with relevant stakeholders on the appointment of a focal point for each stakeholder group in order to facilitate the process. Consultation before and during the data collection is encouraged, as well as for the validation of data, to ensure broad consensus and data accuracy. The Joint Support Team will share a tool for data collection with the national co-ordinator. The national co-ordinator is expected to fill this tool with the data validated at country level for each indicator and to submit it to the Joint Support Team by 31 March 2016

Disbursement: the placement of development cooperation resources (ODA, OOF) at the disposal of a country. Resources provided in-kind should only be included when their value have been monetised in an agreement or in a document communicated to government. In cases where one provider disburses funds on behalf of another, it is only the provider who makes the final disbursement who should report (to avoid double counting) Disbursement for the government sector: development co-operation funding disbursed in the context of an agreement with administrations (ministries, departments, agencies, municipalities) authorised to receive revenue or undertake expenditures on behalf of central government. Incl. works, goods or services delegated to subcontracted entities (e.g. NGOs, semi-autonomous government agencies, private companies) Provider of development co-operation: a country, organisation or official agency (incl. national and subnational co-operation agencies, as well as multilateral development institutions) that provide development cooperation funding. Not included: MGOS, foundations, CSOs, and private companies (even when they implement programmes funded by providers) General Definitions
