Over time, traditional donors of aid to developing countries have set standards and best practices for development cooperation through the OECD’s Development Assistance Committee (DAC). How should these established donors respond to the arrival of new non-DAC donors such as India and China, who may not play by the same rules?

Recipient countries need to say ‘no’ more often to aid with excessive strings attached.
