China, Africa and the future of development aid
What are the characteristics of China’s development aid, and how does it compare with aid from traditional donor countries?
Hovedinnhold
China has rapidly become a major provider of development assistance, reshaping how global aid is delivered and understood. This seminar features the authors and contributors to the new book Chinese Development Aid and Africa: What, How and Why.
The discussion will explore the defining characteristics of China’s development aid, how it compares with aid from traditional donor countries, and the implications for the global development landscape.
We’ll also examine China’s role within a shifting global order, at a time when aid to the world’s poorest countries is declining and international cooperation is under strain.
