Does Foreign Aid Actually Work?
Billions of dollars worth of aid have been sent over the recent decades in hopes of building up the developing world, but whether the aid is achieving its stated goals is still up for debate. So this week, we look at how aid is being spent in Africa, how it compares to private funding and foreign loans, and what would need to be changed to make the impact on the ground?
On the panel this week:
Max Lawson (Oxfam)
Daron Acemoglu (MIT)
Alex Vines (Chatham House)
