ANALYSIS

Achievements and progress

• Sweden remains in the ‘very good’ category for the second time, consolidating its transparency efforts and meeting the Busan commitment.
• Sweden publishes comprehensive information as thirty-four out of the thirty-six items assessed in the Index are published in the IATI Standard.
• Sweden is among the top performers on commitments and for providing planning information at the organisation level.

Challenges and room for improvement

• Tenders and the budget identifier are not published to the IATI Registry.
• Scores on data quality tests remain low on important indicators such as sub-national locations, planned dates, contracts and evaluations.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Sweden should aim for full implementation of the IATI Standard by including tenders and the budget identifier.
• Sweden should work to improve the quality and coverage of some of the items published at the activity-level, starting with planned dates, sub-national locations and contracts.
• Sweden should continue to play a leading role in the IATI community and maximise the benefits of its transparency efforts by developing a strategy to promote internal and external use of its data with all relevant stakeholders in particular at country level.
