Project Details
Description
The Global Aid Rethink podcast series aims to rethink the current global aid landscape; politically, historically and ideologically.
With funding for development aid at its lowest for decades and the sustainable development goals related to aid significantly off-track, the question of whether we should give aid at all remains divisive as ever – and this podcast is not afraid to ask the difficult questions.
Hosted by , Ivica Petrikova, an Associate Professor in Politics and International Relations at Royal Holloway, University of London, and , Melita Lazell, Associate Professor in Political Economy and Development at the University of Portsmouth, delivers in-depth conversations with policymakers, practitioners and academics.
Key themes up for discussion in the series include recent developments in the UK and US, aid as soft power, as neocolonialism, as extraction and in practice.
