Aid Databases
OECD Data
The OECD maintains a list of developing countries and territories; only aid to these countries counts as official development assistance (ODA), which is defined as government aid designed to promote the economic development and welfare of developing countries. Loans and credits for military purposes are excluded. Aid may be provided bilaterally, from donor to recipient, or channelled through a multilateral development agency such as the United Nations or the World Bank. Aid includes grants, "soft" loans and the provision of technical assistance. Soft loans are those where the grant element is at least 25% of the total. The list is periodically updated and currently contains over 150 countries or territories with per capita incomes below USD 12 276 in 2010. Data on ODA flows are provided by the 29 OECD members of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC).

Reconstructing Gaza--Donor Pledges
At the request of Norway, as Chair of the Ad-Hoc Liaison Committee (AHLC), and the Palestinian Authority (PA), the World Bank is monitoring the disbursement progress of funding pledged at the “Cairo Conference on Palestine - Reconstructing Gaza” on October 12, 2014. Total pledges announced at the Cairo Conference amounted to USD 5 billion to the Palestinian Territories, of which USD 3.5 billion is intended to support Gaza. The World Bank monitors the delivery of pledges, disbursement, and implementation progress. The analysis will be included in the World Bank’s economic report presented at the AHLC meeting twice a year. Information provided on the site is consolidated with the Ministry of Planning and Administrative Development and will be updated regularly based on inputs by donors.
