Happy to find out that my article "Economic transformation in Africa: What is the role of Chinese firms?" with Prof Tang is among the top 10 most downloaded in the Journal of International Development!

All that is wrong with 'international development' in one thread.
Imagine Bridge 'came' to your country, to fix your schools.
Exactly.

A reflection from @ODI_Global's webinar on agile procurement: In most places "agile procurement" is sadly an oxymoron. To succeed in digital transformation projects, we need agile project management & empowered procurement - where people have freedom to be creative & open.

MDBs must do so much more to address today's global challenges.
So what are their priorities & ideas for reform?
We invited MDB leaders to share their views.

Getting really worried about the growing number of mega-procurements and diminishing transparency in gov digital.
You can't get good value for money if you lump stuff up into £75m-100m bundles. You'll only ever be able to attract a tiny number of megacorps.
It'll take courage.
