This panel event explores what the new aid landscape means for those on the receiving end of aid. Speakers will discuss how the development/aid landscape in their countries has changed over the years, the opportunities and challenges new modalities and diverse partnerships offer, and how partner governments are managing this new situation in terms of public financial management, aid coordination, public perceptions and expectations.

The three speakers will discuss:
