Poland has sound institutional foundations for its development co-operation. It continues to strengthen its structures and systems on the basis of experience. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs uses the multiannual programming process and annual planning effectively as tools to co-ordinate Polish aid and to raise awareness and ownership of the overall strategic objectives. Poland should build on these achievements by making the most of synergies among activities financed by the special reserve budget and other ministries. The structure and systems in the Development Cooperation Department reflect its responsibilities and the current business model. However, the business model needs to be adapted to ensure that Polish aid is capable of responding in a timely manner to changing development co-operation priorities, including the Sustainable Development Goals, and needs in partner countries.
