The Australian government will cut foreign aid to below pre-pandemic levels next year.
These cuts come despite the prolonged effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which will require more funding to help out biggest aid recipients recover.
#globaldev #gettingdevelopmentright
When #COVID-19 hit, the Australian government reversed its policy of cutting #aid and started to increase it – but this year it’s started to cut aid again. @stephenrhowes takes a look at the figures.

Is Australia moving towards a ‘cautious consensus’ in their aid policy?
Politicians and government departments must contend with balancing their national interest in Australian aid alongside a domestic backlash amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
#globaldev #gettingdevelopmentright
In the context of COVID-19 Australian parliamentarians face the challenge of balancing a humanitarian response with fears of a domestic backlash over increases in the aid budget, explain Benjamin Day @ANUBellSchool and @TamasWells @UniMelb.

Protecting people who lose their homes to climate change | Jane McAdam https://t.co/tJYkrXApRr
With #COP26 fast approaching and Australia's climate policies under heavy criticism, it's important to look at the issues, what's at stake, and what a net-zero world might look like.
#globaldev #gettingdevelopmentright
More than 100 world leaders will soon gather in Glasgow for #COP26. "Commitments in Glasgow will spark a global race toward net-zero. But it is not a race we should be scared of. If we embrace the transition, Australia will prosper" - @wtmpacific. #auspol

A new report by @ADB_Sydney_PSDI has found that women are outperforming regional averages for representation in #business in some #Pacific states.
Let’s hope this trend continues and more women are empowered in business and politics.

Global remittances dwarf the global aid budget, yet it is so expensive to transfer money from developed to developing nations?
This new article in @Devpolicy by @ALeighMP examines the importance and cost of remittances from Australia abroad.
#globaldev #gettingdevelopmentright
People are paying too much to transfer money to developing countries, says @ALeighMP, and foreign exchange providers should be more transparent about their charges.

This new article by @stephenrhowes looks at the @CGDev CDI rankings and where #Australia ranks in #internationalaid for quality and quantity of development finance. What should Australia be doing to increase their aid presence?
#globaldev #gettingdevelopmentright
Reviewing how Australia and NZ did in the latest @CGDev CDI rankings we found (a) NZ has gone from being ranked first to almost last in aid quality; and (b) all OECD countries get the same score on aid transparency. Both very odd.

Could a peacekeeping mission help #Afghanistan? This article written by @charlicarpenter of the University of Massachusetts-Amherst argues that a U.N. led peacekeeping mission rather than a U.S. one could help stabilise the country.
#globaldev #gettingdevelopmentright
Despite the evolving strategic context, there are reasons to think the right conditions for a U.N. peacekeeping mission could in fact yet be emerging, WPR columnist @charlicarpenter writes: https://t.co/x0eaFhHhry
