4.4 Aid Modality

Grant aid to Timor-Leste in 2017 will be provided mostly in the form of stand-alone project support 81 of funds. The remaining 19 of funds will be disbursed through program support. A notable example of upcoming program support is the World Bank executed Sustainable Agriculture Productivity Improvement Project, which will be working directly with the Ministry of Agriculture in supporting its existing program objectives. In line with the New Deal and Timor-Leste’s commitment to strengthen the use of country systems, the Government’s priority remains to use direct budget support. This modality is being currently being followed by the European Union.
