Poland scores 11.3%, placing it in the very poor category. It ranks 39^th out of 49 bilateral organisations. Poland performs well on organisation-level planning information but poorly on financial information.

Of the 22 indicators that take format into account, none are published in machine-readable formats. Overall, Poland does not score on 26 of the 39 indicators.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Poland should join IATI and begin publishing to the IATI standard in 2014. It should update its common standard implementation schedule by early 2014, to include plans for full implementation of IATI by the end of 2015.
• It should engage in the EU-13 project for enhancing ODA reporting capacity and systems to ensure it includes the full IATI standard.
• Poland should consider joining OGP which currently includes 17 EU Member States. This would be an opportunity to share best practice in open data and open government approaches with peers in the EU and with partners who receive Polish aid.
