Five years after Busan—how does the U.S. stack up on data transparency? (George Ingram, Brookings)

Reuters/Yuri Gripas - (L-R) Ghana President John Dramani Mahama, Ghana Finance Minister Seth Terkper, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Dana Hyde, CEO of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), participate in the Ghana Compact Signing Ceremony at the State Department in Washington August 5, 2014

Publish What You Fund’s 2016 Aid Transparency Index is out. And as a result, today we can assess whether major donors met the commitments they made five years ago at Busan to make aid transparent by the end of 2015. The index is also a window into the state of foreign aid transparency and how the U.S.—the world’s largest bilateral donor—stacks up.
