International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI)

The International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI) is a global, open data initiative that provides information on aid spending and effectiveness in one common standard of structure and format. A wide range of organisations use it, from donors and governments, to aid practitioners and project partners, to track aid spending.

The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office places great importance on transparency compliance, and project information must be published every quarter, in line with the IATI standard and FCDO’s minimum requirements for publishing.

A new, free online tool developed by IATI is now available enabling organisations to publish their development and humanitarian activities and resource flows according to the rules and guidance of the IATI Standard. Designed to be simple to use, it is particularly aimed at supporting small to medium-sized organisations.  Find out more on IATI Publisher’s overview page.
