From Charles on Treasury views on development effectiveness
Hi Matt,
This is great! This kind of discussion has been lacking within Australia. I am happy that you and Stephen have taken the initiative.
Cheers,
Charles
From Nick on Why Australia needs an aid plan
Matt,
Good post, and yes, we definitely need a plan for Australian aid. Have you seen the online discussion that Oaktree eXchange had? It raised some interesting questions about the balance of funding between private contractors and NGOs. It also highlighted the fragmentation of international development efforts - something that our government needs to keep in mind when thinking about going into Africa and Latin America.
