We’re excited to share the results of our pilot program; we collected 142 reports from concerned citizens across Kenya. These case studies with @Devex highlight the importance of placing beneficiaries at the center of the conversation around failed aid

I really, really like @devex & @failedaid's series of articles, citizen-sourced, on failed aid projects in Kenya. In addition to rightly championing success stories, we need more listening to citizens and more acknowledging and learning from failure.
'What went wrong?' @devex@failedaid critical exam of problems in #development project examples to highlight Learning. System capacity, funding, low local involvement /ownership & security/ instability = key blocks to achieving #populationbenefit#SDGs https://t.co/DPntBTmZOS

❓“What Went Wrong”
#ImpactAfrica-funded #citizenjournalism project @failedaid's pilot study emphasises the value of putting ‘impact evaluation in the hands of the people directly affected by aid interventions: the recipients.’ https://t.co/PtQJPFMF4T

This is the best research project I've seen in years; @failedaid are investigating hundreds of failed aid projects in Kenya to understand what went wrong. Look forward to reading more. https://t.co/A6Y0NlkgKM HT @viewfromthecave@devex
