Title
ODI - Fluid Dynamics: Achieving greater progress on aid effectiveness in the water
sector – lessons from three countries
Abstract
The objective of this study is to review the extent to which the five Paris Principles
(PPs) on Aid Effectiveness (AE) as set out in the Paris Declaration (PD) on AE:
ownership, alignment, harmonisation, managing for results and mutual accountability,
are being applied in the water and sanitation sector.
The approach included in-depth case study research in three countries (Bangladesh,
Ethiopia and Uganda) and a broader document review. From this evidence the study
aims to identify ways in which external support to the water sector can be delivered
more in the spirit of the PD.

three country case studies. Rather, we suggest that the situation is one of ‘fluid
