The Directorate General for Development Cooperation (DGDC), part of the Federal Public Service for Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation, is responsible for planning, guiding, supporting and following up on governmental development cooperation programmes. It published its own evaluation of humanitarian activities between 2002 and 2006 in May 2008. Belgium’s development cooperation policy was last DAC peer reviewed in October 2005. A follow-up peer review is scheduled for 2010.

Although both relate to ‘humanitarian’ expenditure, FTS and DAC data are not comparable. Reporting requirements and definitions are different. Some, all or none of a DAC donor’s official humanitarian expenditure might be included in the FTS figures. In some instances, more might be reported in humanitarian assistance through the FTS than is included in OECD DAC data
