Executive summary
Is the aid industry turning into a crumbing edifice? Growing complexity is certainly putting a strain on aid architecture. The sheer numbers of state and non-state actors have proliferated, giving rise to new patterns of development co-operation. The global development landscape has changed, too, forming a patchwork of countries at different stages of development.
