Development Centre Studies Policy Ownership and Aid Conditionality in the Light of the Financial Crisis by Oecd Publishing

The current economic situation has obliged the international donor community to reexamine its stance on the conditionality of development assistance. This study evaluates which controversies persist with respect to aid conditionality, how successful donors have been in stemming the rising tide of aid conditionality of the 1980s and 1990s, and whether the donor community practices what it preaches regarding the allocation of aid based on governance and development criteria. Above all, the report considers how the financial crisis has rendered it increasingly difficult to maintain traditional conditionality frameworks. Strategies for reducing the number of aid conditionalities and for enhancing recipient ownership of aid policies are proposed in light of the unsustainability of existing frameworks.

Douglas H. Brooks is Chairman of the Board of the Board of Directors at Brinker International. Monika Queisser is the Head of Social Policy at the OECD.
