Reimagining Technical Assistance: Benchmarking guidance brief, Version 1

This brief was developed as a companion guide to the Critical Shifts Benchmarking Tool, as part of the Reimagining Technical Assistance (RTA) initiative. The brief introduces the benchmarking tool and outlines:

• The rationale behind the benchmarking tool’s development
• How different actors might use it to contribute to creating a more country-driven, coordinated, and equitable development assistance system
• High-level guidance on how to facilitate a benchmarking process

This guide is a draft. We will produce and share updated versions as we learn. We welcome questions and feedback, and are available to support efforts to use and adapt the tool. Please contact us at reimaginingtawg@jsi.com
