October 11-12 th, 2018: HIPSO 2018 Annual Meeting, Thessaloniki, Greece

Based on the Whole Group’s feedback and discussions, we agreed that the use of HIPSO
indicators among participating DFIs has helped to reduce reporting costs for clients, who
previously endured an unintended burden from the DFIs’ different reporting requirements, and they have served as platform for knowledge sharing among DFIs and for the development of other linkages, for example to the IRIS catalog.

We now have an opportunity to build on the success of the HIPSO indicators to serve as a
foundation for a new agenda, given the new opportunities and challenges in the development landscape for HIPSO DFIs. See agenda here.
