Priorities

Do leaders, citizens and donors agree on the most important problems to solve?

How frequently does a Global Goal appear in leaders' top six priorities?

From the report...

We asked leaders to share their insights on the following question: “Based upon your experience, what are the most important issues for advancing [your country’s] development?” Respondents identified up to six goals from a fixed list of 16 SDGs (excluding Goal 17 “Partnerships for the Goals”) that they believed to be most important for advancing their country’s development.

Partners

Which international donors do leaders see as their preferred development partners?

From the report...

In this study, we use two demand-side measures of development partner performance: influence in shaping policy priorities, and helpfulness in implementing policy initiatives or reforms. Leaders rated the influence and helpfulness of the institutions they had worked with, from a fixed list of 43 multilateral and bilateral donors, on a scale of 1 (not at all influential / not at all helpful) to 4 (very influential / very helpful). In this analysis, we only include a donor if they were rated by at least 30 respondents.
