Afghanistan Compact Procurement Monitoring Project
Afghanistan Compact Procurement Monitoring Project
2007
This report responds to a request made by the Ministry of Finance of the Government of Afghanistan to conduct an assessment of the local impact of international aid being delivered to the country as part of the monitoring of the Afghanistan Compact. The findings presented in this report offer the first assessment of commitments made in the Compact by the international community and the Afghan Government related to increasing local procurement to enhance aid effectiveness. In addition to preliminary estimates of the local impact of official development assistance spending, recommendations are made that target the current capacity to monitor and meet these commitments and ways in which stakeholders can work to increase local procurement in Afghanistan.
