Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 27
Paragraph 27
27. Believes that genuine and continuous involvement of beneficiaries in the planning and management of aid is one of the essential conditions for the quality and speed of humanitarian responses, particularly in the case of long-term crises; points out that in many cases there are no formal mechanisms in place to provide complaints/feedback from the beneficiary to the partner concerned or clear rules on the protection of whistleblowers; stresses that this is an important measure for improving the effectiveness and accountability, and preventing potential misuse of, aid materials; calls on DG ECHO to establish such mechanisms without delay;
