Long-standing assumptions about development cooperation are breaking down. Major powers are stepping back, and tightening their budgets, and governments are making harder choices about priorities and trade-offs.

CGD experts are exploring how international development is evolving—from the purpose of aid to how it fits alongside other sources of finance, institutions, and partnerships.

In line with CGD’s longstanding commitment to looking beyond aid, this work examines how policies and practice can adapt to a changing global context, including proposals to reshape how it is targeted, structured, and framed.
