The Third HLF will be made up of three complementary segments.

Marketplace of Ideas

The Marketplace of Ideas will promote information sharing, cross-fertilization of knowledge and approaches, and learning among the HLF participants by showcasing good and innovative practices and lessons in aid effectiveness. Countries and organizations will display posters and written materials that highlight their experience with harmonization, alignment, and managing for results actions to improve aid effectiveness.

Roundtable Meetings

Nine half-day Roundtables, most building on the work of international working groups, will provide participants an opportunity for in-depth discussion to facilitate and support work on aid effectiveness.

Volunteer cochairs representing donors and partner countries are currently developing the Roundtables.

Ministerial-Level Meeting

The Third HLF will conclude with high-level discussions and negotiation around key issues, culminating in the endorsement of a ministerial statement—the Accra Agenda for Action—that aims to deepen implementation of the Paris Declaration.
