Donors out of altruistic motives start aid programs to help develop poor societies. They create programs invest in projects and send experts on technical assistance to attempt to get the poor societies to develop faster. Is it possible, that such programs may stifle domestic initiative and hence inhibit capacity growth for insitutional development. This is an important issue that I have found some evidence for. I am actively researching this issue and would like input, evidnece, anecdotes relating to this. I would apreciate your thoughts and help on this.______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
