Does aid work? This book examines this issue. But rather than trying to establish how effective aid has been, the focus is shifted towards one of the key determinants of effectiveness -- the aid relationship. The study looks at the relationship between Zambia and its donors and discusses the likely impact of aid in a country where poverty has become rampant and the international debt has reached unmanageable proportions.
Zambia, a once prosperous African country, now has 73 per cent of its people below the poverty line and by the early 1990s, the country was included on the list of the least developed countries. Despite significant aid volumes and structural reforms, the country is getting deeper and deeper into poverty. What is the missing link between aid and positive change? Is the problem mainly that the volume of aid is not sufficient and, as is often heard, more of it would make a difference? Has the sluggish social and economic progress in Zambia been appropriately diagnosed and correct remedies and strategies prescribed? This book attempts to address these and related questions.
Examines the economic impact of aid, but not in the sense that it questions the relevance of this objective, or tries to measure whether aid works or not. The focus of this book is on the evaluation process itself. Can aid evaluation be improved in order to increase the effectiveness of aid?
