Alex also shares why she feels the Aid Transparency Index is so important for maintaining and improving international funding data and making it useable for researchers like herself.

He reflects on whether international donors, and those inputting the aid data, know that teams of community volunteers are consuming and using the same data to ensure their projects are being implemented effectively.

Richard Watts of Save the Children discusses how open data is being used to track aid to nutrition and hold donors accountable for their commitments.

The reviewer role is crucial in ensuring we make a full and fair assessment of publishers’ data.
