Bangladesh IATI - AIMS Import module is an initiative to implement automatic data exchange between IATI and AIMS. So that Aid information published in IATI can be automatically imported in AIMS.
Aid Information Management System (AIMS) is a web-based software application that will record and process information about development activities and related aid flows in Bangladesh. Aid Information Management System (AIMS) will capture project‐level information on commitments and disbursements, by Development Partners, implementers, sectors and geographic locations. AIMS Bangladesh also includes information on aid‐financed expenditures and results. This system will help to incorporate aid flows into national budget and improve the overall alignment of assistance with country priorities.
The overall objective of an AIMS is to provide a common information sharing platform for Government, Development Partners and all other stakeholders, in order to increase aid transparency, strengthen mutual accountability, improve aid coordination, strengthen alignment and allow for more efficient aid management. AIMS is an essential tool to implement international mutual commitments reflected in the Paris Declaration of Aid Effectiveness (2005), the Accra Agenda for Action (2008), the Busan Partnership Document (2011) and the Mexico Communique (2014).
As a general rule, the funding agency has the main responsibility to enter the project records and update the information contained in AIMS Bangladesh. In case of co-funded projects, funding agencies must select a leading agency that has the responsibility to create the project record and enter the general project information into AIMS as well as periodically update data.
Development partners have published a large amount of data on their aid activities through the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI). We’re going to start using IATI data in Bangladesh’s Aid Information Management System (AIMS). The aim is to improve the quality of the data held in the AIMS and reduce the burden of data collection.
