Summary results of the 2011/12 accountability assessments of World Bank, WTO, WHO, and DFID

The ESRC funded Global Climate Governance Project of the One World Trust with the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine is releasing first summary findings from the 2011/12 accountability assessments of the World Bank / IBRD, the WTO, the WHO and DFID.

The briefings contain headlines scores achieved by the organisations, analysis on strengths and weaknesses encountered, and a key list of accountability policies and external standards the organisations commit to.

As in previous years the process involved collaborative engagement with all assessed organisations. Findings have been shared and discussed prior to this publications with the institutions themselves. For more information on the assessment framework, download the new Pathways to Accountability II Global Accountability Framework.

More detailed material will be made available through the projects research publications.
