| | Ireland (2003), DAC Peer Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) |
 | | Ireland’s own experience of colonisation, poverty, famine and mass emigration has provided a basis for a long tradition in Ireland of solidarity with the poor and dispossessed. |
 | | Ireland has a great asset in that its main bilateral partnerships are concentrated on a limited number of programme countries: Ethiopia, Lesotho, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia – all least developed countries in sub Saharan Africa – and, since March 2003, East Timor. |
 | | Ireland is strengthening the linkages between the Departments of Finance and of Foreign Affairs in relation to its participation in the Bretton Woods institutions, including by possibly placing a DCI staff member in Ireland’s office at the World Bank. |
