Attributes

Example Usage

The narrative child element can be used to declare freetext for the recipient-country element.

Note: Both the recipient-region and recipient-country elements still allow both a @code and descriptive text to be specified. This is to cover the isolated cases where the organisation publishing the data may not agree with name of a country or region given by the lookup codelists IATI uses.
<recipient-country code="XK">
        <narrative>Kosovo (As per UNSCR 1244)<narrative>
</recipient-country>
Note: The narrative element can be repeated for any language additional to the default language set in iati-organisation, by using the @xml:lang attribute. Example not shown.

Changelog

2.01

The recipient-country element was introduced in 2.01.
