BackgroundThe United Kingdom (UK) used to be the second largest bilateral provider of official development assistance (ODA) for health. However, in 2021 the UK government cut its annual aid budget by 30%. We aim to understand how these cuts might affect financing for health systems in UK aid recipient countries.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of domestic and external funding for 134 countries that received UK aid for the 2019–2020 budget year. We grouped countries into two cohorts: those that continued to receive aid in 2020–2021 (“budget”) and those that did not (“no budget”). Data was collected from publicly available datasets and we compared UK’s ODA, UK’s health ODA with total ODA, general government expenditures and domestic general government health expenditure to assess the donor dependency and donor concentration of budget and no budget countries.FindingsBudget countries are more reliant on external aid to finance their governments and health systems than no budget countries, with a handful of exceptions. While the UK does not appear to be a major ODA contributor among most no budget countries, it is in many budget countries. Two no budget countries in particular may be faced with health systems financing challenges given their high ratios of UK health aid to domestic government health expenditures: the Gambia (1.24:1) and Eritrea (0.33:1). Although “safe” for this budget cycle, a number of low-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have very high ratios of UK health aid to domestic government health expenditures, including South Sudan (3.15:1), Sierra Leone (0.48:1), and the Democratic Republic of Congo (0.34:1).InterpretationThe 2021–2022 UK aid cuts could have negative impacts in a few countries highly dependent on UK health aid. Its departure could leave these countries with rather large funding gaps to fill and create a more concentrated donor climate.

In fiscal year 2019, India spent an estimated *** percent of its overall budget on various grants and loans to foreign governments as aid. However, the highest expenditure allocation on foreign aid during the measured time period was in fiscal year 2016.

State fragility has received an increasing attention in recent decades as a result of the nexus between development and international stability. This study investigates the empirical drivers of state fragility in sub-Saharan Africa from 2007 to 2019. We shed light on the explanatory variables of government effectiveness, political stability, per-capita GDP, grow GDP%, International Monetary Fund (IMF loans), and Official Development Assistance (ODA). Using panel data analysis and a 39-country sample, our study finds that government efficiency and political stability, in contrast to foreign aid, has a significant effect on reducing fragility in sub-Saharan Africa. In light of these findings, the article proposes delivering foreign aid in ways that strengthen state capacity. Devlet kırılganlığı, kalkınma ve uluslararası istikrar arasındaki bağlantının bir sonucu olarak son yıllarda giderek artan bir ilgi görmektedir. Bu makale, 2007-2019 yılları arasında Sahra Altı Afrika'da devlet kırılganlığının ampirik belirleyicilerini araştırmaktadır. Çalışmada, hükümet etkinliği, siyasi istikrar, kişi başına GSYİH, büyüme, Uluslararası Para Fonu (IMF kredileri) ve Resmi Kalkınma Yardımı (ODA) gibi açıklayıcı değişkenlere odaklanılmaktadır. Panel veri analizi ve 39 ülke örneğini kullanan çalışma, hükümet etkinliğinin ve siyasi istikrarın, dış yardımın aksine, Sahra Altı Afrika'daki kırılganlığı azaltmada olumlu bir etkiye sahip olduğunu tespit etmiştir. Bu bulgular ışığında, makale, dış yardımın devlet kapasitesini güçlendirecek şekillerde sağlanmasını önermektedir.

This layer is part of SDGs Today. Please see sdgstoday.orgOfficial development assistance (ODA) is defined by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC) as government aid that promotes and targets the economic development and welfare of developing countries. It remains the main source of financing for development aid, and is a key measure of international aid flow. ODA flows to eligible countries and territories on the DAC’s list of ODA recipients are concessional grants or soft loans provided by official agencies, including governments. Eligible countries include low and middle-income countries as published by the World Bank, with some exceptions. The UN has set an ODA target of 0.7% gross national income (GNI).Annual ODA data is collected, verified, and made publicly available by the OECD. In 2019, the grant equivalent system became the standard for measuring ODA to provide a more realistic comparison of loans and grants. This records only the grant equivalent of loans as ODA.ODA grant equivalent is reported by the OECD in USD or as a proportion of GNI by country and as a total for DAC countries.For more information, contact OECD at dac.contact@oecd.org.

The survey charts Finnish opinion on development cooperation. Knowledge of the objectives, resources, target countries and policies of Finnish development cooperation were studied. Respondents were asked which geographical area of the world should be the main target of Finnish development aid, and why. They also evaluated the importance of development cooperation to Finnish foreign policy. One question covered main information sources on this matter. Respondents were asked to estimate how much Finland spends on development cooperation annually (as per cent of the GNP) and how much should be spent. The survey carried a set of attitudinal statements relating to the goals of development cooperation (e.g. conflict resolution, poverty reduction, promoting democracy). Further questions covered the United Nations and its developmental activities. One question investigated respondent satisfaction with the speed, volume and targets of disaster relief given by the Finnish government. Views were probed on what kind of role voluntary and non-governmental organizations should play in development aid. Knowledge of EU's development cooperation and the Lome agreement (between the EU and 71 African and Caribbean countries) was surveyed. Lastly, respondents were asked where and what kind of development aid they would provide, if they themselves could decide. Background variables included respondents' age group, gender, economic activity, occupational group, education, household gross income, type of the place of residence, region of residence, and whether the respondent had ever visited developing countries.

The average health expenditure per person in Myanmar reached just over ** U.S. dollars in 2019. This was a significant increase from 2010, when the health expenditure per capita was approximately **** U.S. dollars in Myanmar. Increasing investments Myanmar, a country which has faced political and social instability, has been striving to improve all aspects of its economy and society. Myanmar has aimed to improve its public healthcare system by increasing investments into the sector. The private healthcare sector has made huge expansions, made possible by foreign aid. Previously, for more technical services such as scans to determine a cancer diagnosis, patients would have to travel to other Southeast Asian countries. However, with increased funding and modernization Myanmar now has the equipment available to address a wider variety of healthcare needs. Having previously suffered a huge decrease in doctors and specialists, the number of doctors in Myanmar continues to fluctuate remarkably.

Comparison to other health systems Myanmar’s health system has always fallen short compared to its ASEAN neighbors. However, in terms of the country’s health expenditure as share of the GDP, the country's spending accounted for the fourth highest share among Southeast Asian countries in 2019. Previously, Myanmar was subject to a military government which allocated insufficient funds to its health sector. Subsequently, citizens have had to pay more than other countries for their healthcare, which called for reforms within the healthcare sector. Although out of pocket costs began to reduce from the onset of 2015, they still remained higher than the global average. As well as decreasing out of pocket costs, health expenditure started to account for a larger share of the nation’s GDP.

In 2023, just over 55.36 percent of Nepal’s gross domestic product (GDP) came from its service sector. Agriculture contributed the second largest amount, while eleven percent came from the industry sector. The majority of the Nepalese population lives in rural areas, and are depended on agriculture for their livelihood. A struggling but strong population Around 63 percent of Nepal’s 29.6 million inhabitants are part of the workforce, i.e. between 15 to 64 years old. Though the country has a very low unemployment rate (probably due to the fact that agricultural occupations are usually not taken into account when calculating national unemployment) , it is considered a country weighed down by high poverty, with a consistent trade deficit and a volatile inflation rate. However, recent perceptions of children’s living standards when they grow up in Nepal are overwhelmingly of the opinion that the standard of living is better. The Nepalese economy Nepal has robust ties with the country of India, which is both the country’s main export partner, as well as its main import partner . Nepal’s economy has been under the influence of political instability over the course of the country’s history: a monarchy until the early 2000s, it then became a republic with a Maoist-dominated government. Lately, Nepal made several attempts to improve its economic situation, but still relies heavily on remittances and foreign aid.

The data reached an all-time high of 1.971 USD mn in 2019 and a record low of 1.971 USD mn in 2019. Iran Net Official Flows from UN Agencies: CERF data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Iran – Table IR.World Bank.WDI: Defense and Official Development Assistance. Net official flows from UN agencies are the net disbursements of total official flows from the UN agencies. Total official flows are the sum of Official Development Assistance (ODA) or official aid and Other Official Flows (OOF) and represent the total disbursements by the official sector at large to the recipient country. Net disbursements are gross disbursements of grants and loans minus repayments of principal on earlier loans. ODA consists of loans made on concessional terms (with a grant element of at least 25 percent, calculated at a rate of discount of 10 percent) and grants made to promote economic development and welfare in countries and territories in the DAC list of ODA recipients. Official aid refers to aid flows from official donors to countries and territories in part II of the DAC list of recipients: more advanced countries of Central and Eastern Europe, the countries of the former Soviet Union, and certain advanced developing countries and territories. Official aid is provided under terms and conditions similar to those for ODA. Part II of the DAC List was abolished in 2005. The collection of data on official aid and other resource flows to Part II countries ended with 2004 data. OOF are transactions by the official sector whose main objective is other than development-motivated, or, if development-motivated, whose grant element is below the 25 per cent threshold which would make them eligible to be recorded as ODA. The main classes of transactions included here are official export credits, official sector equity and portfolio investment, and debt reorganization undertaken by the official sector at nonconcessional terms (irrespective of the nature or the identity of the original creditor).
