Description
Aid can only be a catalyst, not a driver of development. Aid can work: it has achieved notable successes in even the most disadvantageous country settings. But it is not a panacea. Many new playerssuch as middle-income countries, private philanthropists and even the private business communityare now providing aid, but their impact depends on how aid is organized and delivered. Catalyzing Development is an in-depth analysis of the new approaches that are needed to meet development challenges.
