Public submissions on performance benchmarks for the Australian aid program

The Government is in the process of developing performance benchmarks to improve the accountability of the Australian aid program and give taxpayers greater confidence in its effectiveness. The benchmarks are intended to link performance with funding, and to integrate the aid program with Australia's broader foreign and trade policies.

To ensure the process of developing benchmarks is open and transparent, the Government has undertaken a series of consultation meetings and roundtables with key stakeholders. In addition, the Government invited written submission to input into the development of benchmarks.
