Aid and development linkage

by Danielle Cave - 6 April 2011 2:35PM

Cross-posted from our sister site, Interpreting the aid review.

  • Interpreting the aid review will come to an end on Friday 15 April. We are always happy to accept last-minute pieces so get blogging before this unique and open avenue for discussion and debate on Australia's aid program disappears. 
  • This Guardian article urges aid agencies to begin listening to the people they're helping. How? By eliciting feedback (polling, social media) and then responding to it. (thanks Gobie) 
  • Cynthia Banham easily convinces me that the independent aid review should be putting women at the centre of Australia's aid strategy. (thanks Susan)
  • Andrew Leigh, Federal Member for Fraser, insists that foreign aid should be beyond politics as 'the policy is very clear'. He has an interesting blog on aid, corruption & the rise of China as an aid donor. (thanks @ShobazKandola)
  • The Lowy Institute has a new publication 'China in the Pacific: The new banker in town'.
  • The Global Dashboard, a fantastic blog on development and emerging global issues, looks at the future of international aid. It's also worth flicking over the comments.
  • Finally, an English subtitled trailer for a new documentary about Internet usage in Indonesia, by the NGO ICT Watch. (via @CSEASUCB)

Interpreting the Aid Review

This is the archive of a Lowy Institute blog which ran from January to April of 2011. It was published to debate the Gillard Government's independent aid review, which was then in its research and consultation phase. We offer this archive as a service to researchers and the general public.
