2020 Australasian AID Conference - Keynote address - The future of aid in the 21st century: five paradigm shifts

The language and theory of ‘aid’ is outdated. But something like it is still needed as the world faces huge common challenges, new and old. In this keynote address, Jonathan Glennie sets out a new approach for the 21st century: global public investment. He proposes five paradigm shifts for the future of concessional international public finance, as the world of international development moves on from an old-fashioned ‘aid’ mentality.

Jonathan Glennie, Principal Associate at the Joep Lange Institute, and writer and researcher on poverty and human rights 

Chair:

Elizabeth Peak, First Assistant Secretary, Human Development and Governance Division, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
