Homegrown aid

Aca va un articulo muy bueno de Jeffrey Sacks sobre la importancia de incorporar las preferencias de los beneficiarios para diseñar programas asistenciales. El siguiente es un parrafo de ese artículo.

“The traditional approach, and the wrong one in this case, would be for Washington to try to decide what’s best for each country, and then spend considerable time and money on report-writing, site visits and professional advice. When aid programs are operated this way, they can end up spending half or more of their funds on United States-based travel, personnel and administration, and take years to get off the ground. The benefits for poor countries are then much too little and too late.”
