| Brazil | 2024 | Link to Elements Paper Submission | We also encourage the establishment of an enhanced transparency framework, under the auspices of the UN, to harmonize concepts and standards as well as monitor ODA financial flows. This mechanism should be transparent, participatory, and responsive to the needs of developing countries, which are the primary beneficiaries of such assistance. By enhancing accountability and ensuring that resources are allocated efficiently and equitably, this mechanism would align aid flows with the priorities and challenges faced by recipient nations, thereby fostering more effective and sustainable development outcomes. |
| Zambia | 2024 | Link to Elements Paper Submission | Agree on a UN Convention on International Development Cooperation, including establishing a mechanism for the fulfilment of the trillions in unmet ‘aid debt’ owed to the Global South through decades. |
