Office of Development Effectiveness

The Australian Government established the Office of Development Effectiveness (ODE) in 2006 to monitor the quality and evaluate the impact of the Australian aid program.

The ODE answers directly to the Director General of AusAID. It is guided by a Development Effectiveness Steering Committee, including deputy secretaries of the Australian Government departments Prime Minister and Cabinet, Foreign Affairs and Trade, Treasury and Finance and Administration.
