Unlocking efficiency through flexible funding: Responding to new needs and changing operational contexts

This workshop will provide a platform for discussion on good practices as well as barriers to the promotion of multiannual and flexible funding. It will evaluate what good practices in flexible funding are, and how these can be showcased to provide donors with an enhanced scope and incentive to increase this kind of financing. The discussion will also bring attention to the value of flexible funding by international aid organisations in relation to local partners. Finally, the efficiency gains unlocked through flexible funding, as well as the impact of improved reporting, transparency and visibility from agencies and NGOs will be discussed.
