In the current context of budgetary adjustments on the part of numerous donors, there is an increasing public pressure in favour of the accountability for the use of the resources devoted to official development assistance. That is why it is necessary to measure and evaluate the results of the projects and programmes financed by that assistance. The goal of this article is to offer a first assessment of the results of the Initiative of Aid for Trade for the case of Latin America. To achieve this goal, a double quantitative and qualitative approach is applied, involving the use of the Enabling Trade Index and the case stories of aid for trade projects and programmes.
