No wp-2013-142, WIDER Working Paper Series from World Institute for Development Economic Research (UNU-WIDER)

Abstract: This paper seeks to (i) establish the areas in which aid from the major donors is concentrated; (ii) examine how aid has been allocated to the environmental sectors, and (iii) review the factors behind the success of environmental projects. Using data from the Aiddata.org database, the distribution of environment-related aid, commitments and disbursements from the major donors over the period 2005-11 is examined. Recipients of aid and donors were interviewed to learn their perceptions on aid flows and the success of environmental projects.
