Overview
These grant funds will allow the Results for Development Institute (R4D) to develop an external accountability mechanism for the July 2012 Family Planning Summit. R4D plans to produce an options paper for an independently administered monitoring and accountability mechanism to ensure the commitments made at the summit are realized. R4D will also seek to broaden support for the proposed monitoring and accountability mechanism through a consultation process, and generate donor interest to fund the implementation of the mechanism.

Grants to this Grantee
for dissemination activities related to QEDC evaluations
This grant to Results for Development Institute would enable them to translate the findings from evaluations of interventions in early-grade literacy and numeracy into actionable lessons and tools for practitioners, policymakers, donors, advocates, and researchers.
for the Transparency and Accountability Program
The Population Program's recent advocacy efforts have focused on addressing inefficient and ineffective uses of funding for reproductive health, including the lack of transparency and accountability in budgeting and expenditures at the country level. This contribution to the Transparency and Accountability Program will allow it to select about two organizations per year with particular interest in addressing issues ranging from supplies stockouts to staff absenteeism in the reproductive health sector. TAP will provide the organizations with technical assistance on using specific methodologies such as expenditure tracking studies to generate evidence for advocacy. This collaborative grant with Global Development helps to illustrate potential synergies in the integrated program, and the possibilities for sector-specific applications of Global Development's transparency and accountability work. Please refer to Global Development's docket for more information about this grant.
