1 Project: Capacity Building in Management of South-South and Trilateral Cooperation Case Study: Survey of Brazilian Cooperation for (COBRADI) JOAO BRIGIDO BEZERRA LIMA Planning and Research Specialist Institute for Applied Economic Research (Ipea)

2 Brazil has made use of solutions created and developed domestically, on topics such as agriculture, education and public safety, to support countries facing similar difficulties in overcoming obstacles to their development.

3 Whether through specific actions such as donations of food and medicine to victims of natural disasters, technical cooperation projects, granting scholarships to foreign students or contributions to international organizations, the principles of nondifference inspires and drives Brazilian Cooperation for (COBRADI)

4 The federal government s decision to take on the challenge of mapping out the various expressions of its current international cooperation is considered an evolution towards the improvement of Brazil s international cooperation policy.

5 The Cobradi survey provides information and transparency, and proves the usefulness of efforts that promote cooperation, both for Brazilian citizens, who will then have a basis for analysis, as well as for the governments of other developing countries willing to better evaluate cooperation opportunities abroad.

6 The research coordinated by Ipea in the period , along with federal agencies responsible for implementing public policies, allowed for a greater understanding of how they organize and articulate when providing their body of knowledge within international partnerships.

7 Actions of COBRADI, executed by the federal government, are implemented with budgetary resources from the National Treasury used in the adoption of responsibilities assumed in treaties, conventions, agreements, protocols, institutional acts or international commitments.

8 The survey of the Union s expenditures was carried out by involving and obtaining the commitment of approximately 91 federal institutions. these institutions made available their records in electronic form, in a web environment, with the mobilization of approximately 250 public servants and collaborators.

9 Pioneering initiative to: i) Identify international commitments made by Brazil ii) Survey expenditures made by federal government institutions with the implementations of COBRADI and iii) Describe events/ actions carried out by the Brazilian federal government in international development cooperation,

10 The Brazilian government published in 2010 COBRADI s first edition with data on cooperation gathered between 2005 and In August of this year, the 2010 report was published, while the 2011 report is expected to be edited during the first half of 2014.

11 From the survey of the 2010 COBRADI s data, Ipea characterized the profile of Brazilian cooperation in Latin America and the Caribbean based on the events/ actions carried out in the region and its sectoral and thematic expressions, with the aim of exploring what the Brazilian federal government actually executed under the denomination of COBRADI.

12 The sectors with the highest number of occurrences in the region were: security and defense in the first place-, education, agriculture, livestock and supplies. COBRADI is also active in social protection and inclusion; industry and trade; environment and energy.

13 The study of Latin America and Caribbean is complete and the same methodological approach will be used with Africa. The 2011 Report will adopt the same approach, given its relevance to the Brazilian policy s debate regarding cooperation for development

14 Beginning next week, Ipea will make available on its website, the English version of the 2010 COBRADI report, which is expected to be made available in print later this year. A second edition of the 2010 COBRADI Report, in print, will also be available on the website and in print.

15 Ipea s experience with approaching Brazilian Cooperation for international development Ipea s Study Group on Cooperation for (GECID) began planning the 2014 survey, defining the method to be used in 2014 and 2015 in the analysis of Brazilian Cooperation for
