Description

Making Aid Work brings together a variety of creative approaches to successfully utilizing aid in Sub-Saharan Africa in the twenty-first century. The contributors use Goran Hyden's autonomous-development fund model as an inspiration for the direction of their arguments. The approaches seek a means of promoting the genuine and effective partnerships necessary for accomplishing short-term and long-term objectives in Africa. The essays focus on the development of the managerial capacity and administrative culture that must take place before the development-fund model can be successful. A commitment to promote scientific problem solving at all levels of society and education would be needed to support innovative management training methodologies, and develop strategies for coping with financial pressures. The contributors hope to provide guidelines with the potential for broad impact and lasting benefits that partnerships in North and South Africa can confer.
