UK Conservative Party Announces Support for Two CGD Initiatives
July 13, 2009
The United Kingdom’s Conservative Party has launched a policy paper outlining the party’s agenda for international development. CGD program coordinator Ayah Mahgoub reports that among other initiatives in the paper, there is strong support for two ideas developed by CGD: Cash on Delivery (COD) Aid and the International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie). Mahgoub says the report signals growing bipartisan support from both the Labor Party and the Conservative Party for more effective development efforts.
