ILO becomes member of International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI)
By making data easily accessible and comparable, the IATI Standard supports improved accountability on the use of resources and what they achieve, which will benefit both the ILO’s constituents and the international development community more widely.
As a full IATI member from January 1 2021, the ILO will continue to strengthen its information, monitoring and reporting to IATI, as well as evaluation of progress towards achieving decent work outcomes and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This important step builds on a longstanding principle of openness, transparency and accountability in ILO operations. Publishing data to initiatives like IATI gives the ILO and its constituents better insights into how the Organization invests its resources to make decent work a reality for all."
Moussa Oumarou, Deputy Director General for Field Operations and Partnerships
We are very pleased to welcome ILO to IATI’s growing membership. By joining IATI, ILO will play an essential role in improving the availability of transparent, open data required to deliver sustainable development outcomes."
Theo van de Sande, IATI Governing Board Chair, Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs
ILO’s membership underscores once again the strong and continuing commitment of the UN system to providing open, transparent data and moves us another step closer to the Secretary-General’s goal of all UN entities publishing data on their work to IATI."
Joseph Barnes, IATI Governing Board Member, UNICEF
