Paris Declaration survey 2011: Data collection procedures and (provisional) timeline
Data collection

Indicators 3-10 of the Paris Declaration survey require that development partners enter information into the Cambodia ODA Database –  this means that development partners are NOT required to directly complete the Donor Questionnaire provided by the OECD/DAC. Data will be exported from the ODA Database to complete the Country Spreadsheet and it will then be presented for validation. For indicators 10a and 10b, data collection will be through the Missions recording system (linked to ODA Database) in the first instance, supplemented with additional information as required. It is proposed that data to be collected and consolidated for the survey exercise as follows:

Data collection modality

The Paris Declaration survey methodology measures aid provided to the Government sector at the 'point of delivery' (i.e. by implementing partner) so this information is essential to complete the survey.
