| Summary |
The context in which aid agencies operate is shifting fast. The technocratic space to help reduce poverty and save lives, based on rigorous evidence, has shrunk: the poverty gap is within reach, but the pace of improvement is slowing just as aspirations have expanded. At the same time, support for globalisation in many forms, including aid and multilateral action, has fractured. We offer five high-level policy recommendations, and then in section 6 recap the 12 more detailed policy suggestions presented in earlier sections |
