Evaluating Aid

Jim Riley

There is an excellent article on the BBC website today that could be used when evaluating the economic effectiveness of aid.

Banladesh receives about $2bn in foreign aid each year, but it does not always reach the people it is intended to help. Corruption is still widespread in the country and government officials can be swayed to favour firms which offer them personal payments.

This article looks at why ais is not reaching the best projects and what can be done to reform the system in Bangladesh.
