Thank you.
You talk in your presentation about working with other donor countries and participating in international mechanisms such as the universal periodic review process with the United Nations.
To that effect, I read the August 2011 “Concluding observations of the Human Rights Committee [on] Ethiopia”. It does mention concerns about certain legislation in the country, particularly the proclamation on charities and societies, which prohibits, as you know and have mentioned, Ethiopian NGOs from obtaining more than 10% of their budget from foreign donors.
How does CIDA takes these country assessments into account in redesigning or reassessing country programs?
