On 1 February 2021, the Eminent Person and the Facilitation Group Ministers and Principals endorsed a general direction on the future of the Grand Bargain (GB) in a 4-page Annex to the meeting. As a follow up, the Facilitation Group invited the workstreams in mid-March 2021 to take stock of the results achieved through the Grand Bargain and assess any remaining key outputs with direct relevance to the two enabling priorities of the Grand Bargain 2.0 (localisation and quality financing). The Facilitation Group Sherpas met on 26 March 2021 to discuss the proposals that the workstreams submitted and the next steps, including the Grand Bargain Annual Meeting, planned for 15-17 June 2021. As a team with vast institutional expertise including writing four Annual Independent Reviews, ODI were invited to provide their views and suggestions as independent advisors to the Facilitation Group. In parallel over the last few months, further consultations took place at constituency level. The Friends of Gender Group were also consulted to ensure their inputs are reflected and strengthen gender components of the framework. Download [Full Report English] [Full Report Bangla]
