ABOUT THE EVENT

The Center for Global Development (CGD) is hosting this panel discussion on what the Role of Aid in Middle-Income Countries is. It will consider the role China is playing as a new donor in MICs. What is China’s strategy, and does it respond to its experience as an aid recipient?

The presentation will be followed by a panel discussion between academia representatives and development policy experts.
