Recommendation 4

4 Paragraph: 25

Advocate within OECD to reform ODA eligibility criteria for SIDS' vulnerabilities

Recommendation
The UK Government should use its membership of, and influence within, the OECD to advocate that ODA eligibility criteria be reformed to reflect SIDS’ vulnerabilities. This could take the form of a ‘small island exception’ as employed by the World Bank or a Multidimensional Vulnerability Index (MVI), such as that currently being considered by the United Nations.
