Project Overview
While key actors such as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC) have recognized the need to adapt development strategies in contexts of fragility, insights into the specific dynamics of cooperation in such situations remain sparse, as do adapted responses.
This project is part of a larger research program that led to the creation of a network of partners in Canada, Afghanistan, Burundi, Haiti and the Palestinian territories. It seeks to explore the national and international factors– intra-institutional, political, economic and social – that affect aid effectiveness, and more broadly development cooperation, in fragile states.
