DEVELOPMENT WATCH is an Alliance for Monitoring International Cooperation and has been launched by GLOBAL COOPERATION COUNCIL and IPS EUROPE as an independent watchdog to monitor reliable and critical information on international development cooperation. You will agree with me that tax payers in the OECD countries have the right to know what is happening with their hard-earned money. Also peoples in the countries of the South receiving funds must be enabled and empowered to know what their governments are doing with the money they get for them from the North. This objective can be achieved if individuals, institutions and organizations around the world – in North and South – help us and provide DEVELOPMENT WATCH reliable and critical information.
