Tesis ini membahas mekanisme penerimaan hibah luar negeri terkait dengan upaya meningkatkan efektivitas pemanfaatan hibah. Efektivitas hibah tergantung pada: 1) kualitas pemerintahan Negara Penerima, 2) kualitas hibah, dan 3) tata kelola pengorganisasian hibah. Prinsip efektivitas bantuan/hibah yaitu alignment, menegaskan pentingnya penggunaan sistem pengelolaan keuangan pemerintah (use of country system) dalam pengelolaan hibah.
Mekanisme penerimaan hibah secara langsung dianalisis menggunakan indikator use of country systems, yaitu: on plan, on budget, on parliament, on treasury, on accounting, on procurement, on auditing, dan on reporting. Hasil analisis menyebutkan bahwa mekanisme penerimaan hibah secara langsung tidak memenuhi indikator on plan, on budget dan on parliament.
Efektivitas mekanisme penerimaan hibah langsung dipengaruhi oleh tingkat pencatatan hibah yang diterima, serta dua hal yang masih harus dikaji lebih mendalam yaitu kepatuhan Kementerian/Lembaga untuk melaporkan hibah yang diterima dan sikap Donor terhadap use of country systems.
