Why the old aid model does not work

Why the old model does not work

With drastic cuts in aid not only from the US but also from other traditional donors change of the aid model is obviously necessary..

Many of us have for years and even decades argued the fundamental crack lines in the humanitarian business model. Others have questioned the objectives and effectiveness of development aid. The needed changes have not materialized in any significant way.

Fundamental change is now required by force and circumstance. – see 60 -70% $ reduction


The humanitarian business model   -  elaborate

Hum aid is weaponized in conflicts

Based on parallel external implementation with no capacity development ( in the name of neutrality)

Any crisis opportunity to attract funding. Overheads etc

The development approach -  elaborate
