This report presents the outcome of an evaluation study of the co-ordination and complementarity between European actors with regard to assistance to local development. The study provides an in-depth look at the actual use of co-ordination mechanisms and task divisions in a field which is increasingly important to development efforts. It concludes that European Union Member States and the Commission have a remarkably low level of performance when it comes to achieving value-added effects and impacts of co-ordination efforts with each other in general, and in the area of support for local development specifically. These conditions impede local ownership and represent important obstacles to aid effectiveness and balanced relationships based on mutual accountability. On the basis of the evidence that was collected through a grounded research approach, which included country studies on South-Africa, Indonesia, Guatemala and Mozambique, concrete recommendations are brought forward to improve the present situation.
