Following money through the Yes I Do Alliance

Compare what a government funder, international charities and country partners published about the movement of money through one program.

Six publishers describe activities in the Yes I Do Alliance, which worked on child marriage, early pregnancy, and female genital mutilation and cutting. The source files connect the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Plan International Netherlands, Plan to Amref Flying Doctors Netherlands, and Amref Netherlands to partners in Ethiopia, Kenya and Malawi. This case follows the public records along those routes.

Two views of a transfer

Plan reported a €321,108 disbursement to Amref on April 7, 2020. Amref reported the same amount and date as incoming funds and named Plan’s exact activity as the source. The two records are candidate views of one transfer. Adding both amounts would double count the candidate.

Across all five routes, 6 pairs have the same reported date and amount. A further 16 have the same amount with dates up to 45 days apart. No shared transaction identifier was established across publishers. These comparisons preserve both reporting dates and any records left unmatched.

How the comparison works

The comparison uses published IATI activity and organization identifiers. Within each route, it first pairs unique same-day records with the same signed euro amount. It then pairs remaining same-amount records only when each has one counterpart within 45 days. The chosen date window is a Charitology rule for this case. Different amounts and ambiguous candidates stay separate.

The records describe disbursements and incoming funds. They do not identify which particular upstream euro paid for a later disbursement or what reached the people the program aimed to serve. Adding stages would count some of the same money again. The case excludes spending, commitments, other alliance partners and results indicators.

Open the JSON data

The export identifies the publishing organization, source file, activity, transaction position and reference where supplied. Source fingerprints and licence codes come from the captured files and IATI dataset metadata. Charitology selected factual fields for this comparison. See the IATI traceability guidance for transaction types and activity references.
