Tool Clusters: Engagement Tools
The tools of engagement detail NZAID’s approach and commitment to the principles of partnership and harmonisation.
- Aid Effectiveness in Fragile States
- This guideline explains what is meant by the term ‘fragile states’ and outlines the DAC Principles for Good Engagement in Fragile States and Situations, which NZAID has committed to. It then provides basic guidance to staff about how to promote the principles in a relationship with a partner in a fragile state or situation, or in discussions with other government agencies about engagement in situations of fragility.
- Budget Support Toolkit (in development)
- SWAps | Sector Wide Approaches
- A SWAp reflects an approach or philosophy that is based on working in support of partner government policies, strategies and systems. The emphasis is on working in a harmonised and aligned way and may encompass a range of partnership arrangements, aid delivery instruments and modalities.
- Working with Civil Society Organisations
- This guideline sets out key concepts, principles, and funding practices which guide NZAID’s engagement with civil society organisations, within New Zealand and off-shore. It establishes consistent parameters but still leaves scope for the particular elements of individual funding windows.
