📣 New research on global health aid from China:
“Our findings enable a better understanding of Chinese health aid and better coordination, collaboration, and resource allocation for both donor and recipient countries”

"It’s possible that philanthropy in the lowest-income countries, impact investing in larger, middle-income countries, and the MDBs in both could become more important for long-term development than bilateral aid."
Estimating Chinese bilateral aid for health: an analysis of @AidData's Global Chinese Official Finance Dataset Version 2.0: new paper by @Kennedy_Kaci @GYamey et al https://t.co/MIM4qd3yYj
Our findings enable a better understanding of Chinese health aid in the absence of transparent aid reporting. We believe that such an understanding could lead to better coordination, collaboration, and resource allocation for both fellow donors and recipient countries.
Key findings
1. ~$4b in Chinese health aid from 2002-2017.
2. China was the fifth largest health aid donor to African countries.
3. Projects were mostly grants/TA.
4. Priority areas include medical services, basic health care, malaria control, and basic health infrastructure.
