Multilateral ODA are official contributions to multilateral agencies, whether negotiated, assessed or voluntary, for which the governing boards have the unqualified right to allocate as they see fit within the organisation’s charter. However, DAC statistical system also tracks flows from multilateral organisations to countries, or multilateral outflows. The use of multilateral agencies as an intermediary is illustrated in this figure as the provision of fixed broadband (right side) in which a router transforms the signals coming from cables and creates a Wi-Fi network.
