Donors and UK NGOs have adopted increasingly similar approaches over the past ten years, yet little time or thought has apparently been spent on examining whether these enabled the kind of changes that they were aiming for. The aid chain presents three country case studies looking at the chain of aid money from donors in the UK, to UK NGOs, to partners and field offices in Uganda and South Africa, and how they use and account for their funding. The title examines how far local strategies and projects are influences by changing donor policies and other external forces, and how far by internal imperatives. Each case study covers donors and NGOs that are linked directly together through the funding chain, and a selection of other agencies, enabling a wider exploration of the issues.
