29 November - 1 December, Busan, Republic of Korea. The outcome from this forum was The Busan Partnership for Effective Development.

This establishes a framework for development cooperation that is broader and more inclusive than previous agreements. It was endorsed by traditional donors, developing countries, the BRICs, CSOs and private funders. It recognises shared principles, common goals and differential commitments for effective international development.

During the Forum, health was mentioned repeatedly as a sector that was making good progress on aid effectiveness. The side event Strengthening Accountability for Results at Country Level: What Have We Learned from health? highlighted the work of IHP+ and the Information and Accountabililty Commission, and discussed the role of parliamentarians and civil society in national accountability mechanisms. In the Knowledge and Innovation Space there was an additional mini debate on Scorecards as a tool to strengthen Accountability, organised by IHP+Results.
