Doesn’t a ranking detract from a spirit of collaboration amongst donors?
Collaboration largely depends on the willingness of donors to work with each other and with their partners and stakeholders to improve performance and accountability. By systematically providing a solid base of evidence of how donors are performing on a wide range of indicators of good practice and highlighting areas for improvement, we think the HRI can actually be used as a tool to promote greater collaboration and information sharing. We believe that the HRI provides an incentive for individual and collective efforts to improve the humanitarian system – the very aims that underlie the GHD principles.
