Description

Accessible and comprehensive, this book provides a much-needed, innovative perspective on international aid highlighting recent shifts towards centring localized voices and practices. Providing an overview of emerging and evolving forms of development, including technology for development, faith-based aid and South-South humanitarianism, the book explores to what extent they disrupt existing models and how they can lead to more equitable and grassroots-led approaches. The authors develop the concept of ‘horizontal development’ to examine how power and privilege operate in international and local development spaces. They highlight opportunities for doing things differently in the light of prominent calls for decolonizing and aid and development.
