The voices of European development researchers are set to have a new platform from this year. September will see the launch of the European Report on Development, aiming to work alongside the well established World Bank and UN development reports.

The title of the first report will be "Development in a context of fragility: Focus on Africa". Researchers who would like to contribute to the consultation on the report can join the discussion at a number of conferences during the coming months. The report is being produced by a multidisciplinary team based at the Robert Schuman Centre of the European University Institute on behalf of the European Commission and draws on the experience of African as well as European reasearchers.

The European Union is the world's biggest donor, giving 60% of global ODA. This new annual report will promote lesson learning among European donors and between all in the global development community.
