From its inception the Center for Global Development has made its mark on issues of aid and aid effectiveness. Many of our staff and non-resident fellows have been key contributors to a lively debate on the question of whether and how aid and the aid system work. Through the Innovations in Aid series, we aim to share more broadly both published and unpublished work in which authors propose new thinking about aid and the system, and new approaches to operationalizing aid transfers. The focus of the series is on innovations, whether in ideas or operations. Our goal is that the Innovations in Aid series speeds and broadens access to new ideas, and contributes to more effective aid programs—public and private, bilateral and multilateral, traditional and new donors.
Though we normally include in our working paper and other series only analyses by our own staff and non-resident fellows or analyses we commission ourselves for a particular program, in this special series we are pleased to publish from time to time at our discretion papers and essays prepared outside the Center. We will also publish commentary on relevant works published elsewhere, and events that will appeal to those interested in questions of aid architecture and delivery.
