Smarter working = smarter aid
DFID is rated as one of the UK's top-performing government departments.
But success doesn't come without hard work. Our success in tackling poverty
relies on maintaining that high level of performance, and our commitment to
transparency.
You can find out how DFID monitors this in our Performance
(containing links to the Departmental Report and Public Service Agreement) and Evaluation sections.
