"While we might all hope that there would be political will to change the current state of aid in Australia, nobody’s willing to be politically exposed over this. Aid is not a hill that the Labor government is going to die on.” #auspol | @jo_m_chandler satpa.pe/3a8et80

#AAC2023, the bureaucratization of monitoring, #evaluation and learning is alarming. We should sometimes push back on producing complicated logic frameworks for all projects/ programs for the sake of it and focus on simplifying the learning process. #AustralianAid #effectiveness
See here for @patriciajrogers views on the new Centre #AAC2023
😬😬to hear a middle age white man push back on a question about ‘whose knowledge counts’ by comparing Development asst. to vaccine development and stating that when we privilege local knowledge needs to be contextual. As if ‘we’ are the uncritical knowers of truth. #AAC2023

NEW ARTICLE! Public services are not just material rewards, but carriers of normative ideas. This matters for state legitimacy.
