A roundtable took place in Brussels on the 17 April hosting Members of the European Parliament.
The purpose of this roundtable was to present the outcomes of the WECA project so far to the participants and to have an exchange of views on EC aid and role in development cooperation, eventually with a view to provide inputs in the finalization process of the reports on aid and MDGs respectively to the Committee on Development of the European Parliament and to the EU-ACP Joint Parliamentary Assembly.
Several arising issues framed the discussion:
- the common European position in Accra
- the impact of new aid modalities and new forms of political dialogue;
- the EP position towards the EU coordination (ex on division of labour);
- the improvement of mutual (multiple) accountability in practice.
