[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe not a function of this agency but the sector itself. Are things any better at other organisations working in the development sector like World Bank, Inter American Development Bank, etc? Is development aid even useful in the first place?[/quote] IFC seems to be rolling along, but it's a very finance and market-oriented organization so there will always be a role. The other multilaterals, particularly the WB and most of the UN organizations, seem to be flailing about. What exactly is the role of an international development organization in a country that is sending spaceships to the moon? - to take India as an example. The world is a very different place then what it was thirty years ago. Private organizations like Gates and others seem to be more effective these days. Agree with another poster that suggested USAID should probably be absorbed by State at this point. [/quote]
