Aid effectiveness has emerged as an intensely debated issue amongst
policy makers, donors, development practitioners, civil society and
academics during the past decade. This debate revolves around one
important question: does official development assistance
complement, duplicate or disregard the local resource endowment in
offering support to recipient economies? This book draws on
Pakistan's experience in responding to this question with a diverse
range of examples. It focuses on a central idea: no aid
effectiveness without an effective receiving mechanism. Pakistan is
among the top aid recipient countries in the developing economies.
It was a shining model in the sixties and it ranks among the highly
underperforming countries after the new millennium. This book
offers an insight into the dynamics of success and failure of
Pakistan in availing foreign financial and technical assistance for
human development and poverty alleviation. It draws on field
experiences to present case studies on water, shelter, health,
education, and health and safety at work to identify the causes and
consequences of aid in relation to social reality. Findings relate
to developing economies and would be of interest to a wide range of
individuals within the development sector.
