A. Markov - Coordinator, WB Russia Development Aid technical assistance program The An international workshop organized by the RF Ministry of Finance and The World Bank in coordination with OECD workshop included representatives of key Russian agencies involved in implementation of recently adopted Concept of Russian international development cooperation, including: Apparat of the Government, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health and Social Development, Ministry of Emergency Situations, Russia Agency for Statistics (Rosstat), other interested Government agencies. The workshop will include key international development agencies and bilateral donors - OECD-DAC, UNDP, DFID, USAID. Several new donors will be invited to present their respective cases and learn from relevant international experience. It is expected that information from the seminar would assist in establishment of appropriate mechanism for collection of Russia aid statistics and reporting according to agreed international standards. This work would have to be completed by end 2008, to be coordinated by RF Ministry of Finance with involvement of all relevant Russian Government agencies and with support from The World Bank and OECD NUI MAYNOOTH Diisel on hEireann M Nund#13English // Русский Министерство финансов Российской Федерации www.minfin.ru При поддержке со стороны Всемирного банка и Организации экономического сотрудничества и развития WORLD BANK OECD 2010 NEW PARTNERSHIPS IN GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT FINANCE Московская международная конференция, 17-18 февраля 2010 г.

Russia's role as a donor is growing both in IDA- with a 60% increase in IDA16 from $108 million contribution in IDA15-and in diverse multilateral partnerships with the Bank Group in such critical areas as quality of education, infectious disease control, food and energy security, and others. Responding to the request of key Russian government agencies in adapting principles and instruments of strategic communication for development aid, the World Bank's Russia country team organized a workshop on "Strategic Communication for Russia's Development Aid Program" as part of a DFID-supported Russia as a Donor Initiative (RDI) in Moscow on January 19-20, 2011. The event engaged all Russian policy making agencies and communicators of the Russian development aid in a dialogue, also bringing experts from the World Bank, OECD, USAID, UNDP, Slovakia as well as local journalists, social media, civil society, and university professors. Participants discussed approaches to a proactive communications strategy for the ODA program, targeting major audiences-inside Russia, in beneficiary countries, and at the international level. PRESENTATIONS > Strategic Communications As Part of the National Aid Framework by Andrew Kircher > Communicating Aid: Lessons from Eight Donors - by Christopher Neal Russia's adult population views on development aid - by Sharon Felzer Russia as a Donor Initiative Program - by Sharon Felzer RELATED LINKS > Development Communication > Photo at Flickr.com The workshop discussed best practices of strategic communications by long-established and new donors, findings of a public opinion survey of Russian population attitudes to development aid, and key priorities for improved communications in support of Russia's development assistance. The importance of domestic support and promotion of the ODA concept at different levels of Russian society was emphasized in particular, as the public poll revealed that 75 percent of citizens would approve Russia's aid to the poorest countries. The main take-away from the workshop was a conclusion that aid communications should be a special function, to be based on branding of national aid, improved information and aid data access, and close collaboration between government aid agencies, journalists, and NGOs. The workshop discussions, findings of the public poll, and background papers prepared by international and local experts will contribute to a Strategic Communication Framework paper that will outline an action plan for the Russian government agencies to help them manage multilateral and bilateral donor activities.
