This book was released on 2012-11-30 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The former Secretary of State for International Development, the Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell MP, stopped payment of general budget support to Rwanda in July 2012.This was because of concerns about the role of Rwanda in the M23 rebellion in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In September he re-instated half the aid as general budget support, and paid the other half directly to the education and agricultural sectors. Although there were concerns about the decision making process and whether the decision was correct. Mr Mitchell assured the Committee that he carried out consultations within the both Governments of the UK and Rwanda before making his decision. The new Secretary of State agreed that the decision-making process had been robust.As part of this process, the Prime Minister set out three conditions for the restoration of aid which the Committee believe to be reasonable and consistent with the aid agreement between the UK and Rwanda Governments. These were 1) Rwanda should engage constructively in the peace process, 2) it should publicly condemn the M23 Group and 3) there should be continuing ceasefire in the Kivus and practical support to the M23 should end.Among the main conclusions are : in the light of Rwanda's progress towards the Millennium Development Goal targets and its poverty reduction efforts, DFID should continue to provide aid to Rwanda; but as the Prime Minister's conditions have not been met, general budget support cannot continue; The Government of Rwanda should comply with all three of the Prime Minister's conditions before further general budget support is disbursed; Until then, DFID should consider alternative channels to deliver its aid.

Book Synopsis Aid and Authoritarianism in Africa by : Tobias Hagmann
Download or read book Aid and Authoritarianism in Africa written by Tobias Hagmann and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2013 almost half of Africa's top aid recipients were ruled by authoritarian regimes. While the West may claim to promote democracy and human rights, in practice major bilateral and international donors, such as USAID, DFID, the World Bank and the European Commission, have seen their aid policies become ever more entangled with the survival of their authoritarian protégés. Local citizens thus find themselves at the receiving end of a compromise between aid agencies and government elites, in which development policies are shaped in the interests of maintaining the status quo. Aid and Authoritarianism in Africa sheds light on the political intricacies and moral dilemmas raised by the relationship between foreign aid and autocratic rule in Africa. Through contributions by leading experts exploring the revival of authoritarian development politics in Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, Cameroon, Mozambique and Angola, the book exposes shifting donor interests and rhetoric as well as the impact of foreign aid on military assistance, rural development, electoral processes and domestic politics. In the process, it raises an urgent and too often neglected question: to what extent are foreign aid programmes actually perpetuating authoritarian rule?

Book Synopsis Foreign Policy in Post-Genocide Rwanda by : Jonathan R. Beloff
Download or read book Foreign Policy in Post-Genocide Rwanda written by Jonathan R. Beloff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how Rwandan elites within the government, private sector and civil society perceive the nation’s political and economic relationship with the international community. Using testimonies and interviews of Rwandan political, military and economic leaders, and bureaucrats, this book examines the intersubjective beliefs that formulate how Rwanda engages with the international community. The book presents and analyses three primary intersubjective themes: historical and possible future abandonment of Rwanda; implementing an ideology of agaciro to promote self-respect, dignity and self-reliance for state security and economic development; and the belief in the government’s obligation to promote human security for those who identify as ‘Rwandan’. These perceptions help us understand how post-genocide Rwanda engages with the international community in the pursuit of state security, economic development and to prevent a future genocide. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of African politics and international relations as well as the politics of post-genocide states.

Download or read book Do Not Disturb written by Michela Wrong and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful investigation into a grisly political murder and the authoritarian regime behind it: Do Not Disturb upends the narrative that Rwanda sold the world after one of the deadliest genocides of the twentieth century. We think we know the story of Africa’s Great Lakes region. Following the Rwandan genocide, an idealistic group of young rebels overthrew the brutal regime in Kigali, ushering in an era of peace and stability that made Rwanda the donor darling of the West, winning comparisons with Switzerland and Singapore. But the truth was considerably more sinister. Vividly sourcing her story with direct testimony from key participants, Wrong uses the story of the murder of Patrick Karegeya, once Rwanda’s head of external intelligence and a quicksilver operator of supple charm, to paint the portrait of a modern African dictatorship created in the chilling likeness of Paul Kagame, the president who sanctioned his former friend’s assassination.

Download or read book Remaking Rwanda written by Scott Straus and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2011-04-18 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1990s, civil war and genocide ravaged Rwanda. Since then, the country’s new leadership has undertaken a highly ambitious effort to refashion Rwanda’s politics, economy, and society, and the country’s accomplishments have garnered widespread praise. Remaking Rwanda is the first book to examine Rwanda’s remarkable post-genocide recovery in a comprehensive and critical fashion. By paying close attention to memory politics, human rights, justice, foreign relations, land use, education, and other key social institutions and practices, this volume raises serious concerns about the depth and durability of the country’s reconstruction. Edited by Scott Straus and Lars Waldorf, Remaking Rwanda brings together experienced scholars and human rights professionals to offer a nuanced, historically informed picture of post-genocide Rwanda—one that reveals powerful continuities with the nation’s past and raises profound questions about its future.

Book Synopsis HC 248 - UK Support for Humanitarian Relief in the Middle East by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: International Development Committee
Download or read book HC 248 - UK Support for Humanitarian Relief in the Middle East written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: International Development Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-07-02 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanitarian relief to the Middle East is critical to long term stability in the region so the UK can be proud that it has already committed £600 million in humanitarian assistance to the grave refugee crisis that has arisen from the Syrian civil war and is currently the second-largest bilateral donor to that relief effort. It is lamentable that some other European nations have so manifestly failed to pull their weight in the Syrian refugee crisis and the UK should do more to secure significant contributions from other large EU nations. The overwhelming emphasis of UK funded humanitarian relief should be to help refugees remain in their own region, so that they have the potential to return home when this becomes possible. The bulk of humanitarian effort in the region should shift away from a focus on refugee camps to providing support for the majority of Syrian refugees who are currently residing in towns and villages in Lebanon or Jordan. This is something many donors remain reluctant to do; the UK must lead the way. To that end the DFID should use national plans as the basis for its assistance to Lebanon and Jordan, as well as launching a medium-term development programme in Jordan. A clear priority must be given to the urgent provision of education for Syrian refugee children to avoid the risk of a lost generation. The Committee also calls on DFID to become far more transparent about how much contingency funding it sets aside for responses to new humanitarian crises going forward.
Download or read book Britain in Africa written by Tom Porteous and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2010-08-17 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has Africa become such an important priority for Britain's foreign policy under New Labour? What interests and values is the UK seeking to uphold by intervening? Why has aid to Africa more than tripled over the past decade? How has the UK's involvement in the War on Terror affected its efforts there? In Britain in Africa Tom Porteous seeks to answer these and other questions about Britain's role in Africa since 1997. He provides an account of the key players, the policies they constructed in the shadow of the war in Iraq and the future of Britain's engagement with the continent. This book sets out the balance sheet of what Britain has achieved, and where and why it failed in Africa. A compelling read, whose importance for international politics reaches far beyond Britain or Africa.

Book Synopsis HC 523 - The Independent Commission for Aid Impact's Performance and Annual Report 2013-14 by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: International Development Committee
Download or read book HC 523 - The Independent Commission for Aid Impact's Performance and Annual Report 2013-14 written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: International Development Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-09-05 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Independent Commission on Aid Impact (ICAI) is an independent commission which reports to the House of Commons International Development Committee, not to the Department for International Development (DFID). The Committee ensures its accountability to Parliament in two main ways: through a sub-Committee, which takes evidence on the reports published by ICAI; and through an inquiry each year carried out by the full Committee into ICAI's Annual Report. 2013-14 has been a busy year for ICAI, with 12 reports published on a wide range of DFID's activities. ICAI's Annual Report contained three headline findings for DFID this year. Firstly, tighter management of multilateral partners is needed. Secondly, DFID needs to continue to improve its aid programme management capacity, especially where contractors are implementing programmes. Thirdly, DFID's corporate results agenda - and in particular its use of 'reach indicators' - is distorting programming choices. The Committee shares ICAI's concerns on these issues and intend to follow up its recommendations in two forthcoming inquiries this autumn: Beyond Aid; and DFID's Departmental Annual Report 2013-14. DFID spends a large amount of money - at least £200 million - on self-evaluation. However, it cannot provide an exact total. The Committee question this large expenditure, especially given that an ICAI evaluation recently found that DFID staff struggle to use self-evaluation material in their work. The contracts of the current ICAI commissioners, contractor consortium and staff all end in May 2015. While staff contracts may be renewed, new commissioners and contractors must be recruited. Planning is underway for the transition to the next phase of ICAI: all possible efforts must be made to ensure this goes as smoothly as possible.
