| Abstract
|
:
|
"How to improve foreign aid programs? Value for money and aid for trade is a common strategy. [This book] explores the concept and practice of impact assessment within the sometimes-unproblematic approaches advocated in current literature of value for money and aid for trade. Contributors from multilateral agencies and NGOs discuss the changing patterns of official development assistance and their effects on impact assessment. They provide theoretical, political, structural, methodological, and practical frameworks, discussions, and a theory-practice nexus. With twin foci of economics and policy, [this book] raises the potential for making sophisticaed and coherent decisions on aid allocation to developing countries"--
