Ireland has been a member of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) since 1985 and was last reviewed in 2014. This report reviews progress since then, highlights recent successes and challenges, and provides key recommendations for going forward. Ireland has partially implemented 71% of the recommendations made in 2014, and fully implemented 29%.

This review – containing both the main findings and recommendations of the DAC and the analytical report of the Secretariat – was prepared with reviewers from Australia and Slovenia for the DAC Peer Review of Ireland and adopted at the OECD on 2 April 2020. In conducting the review, the team consulted key institutions and partners in Dublin and Limerick, Ireland and in the field in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in September and October 2019. The drafting of the peer review including its main findings and recommendations preceded the COVID-19 pandemic.
