What can aid do for social development?


 An aid program's potential contribution to social development is greatly increased if those designing and administering it are conscious and informed about the social context in which aid is provided. Such knowledge can affect decisions about what kind of aid should be offered and to what purpose, while increasing awareness of both the opportunities for aid and its limitations. The Overseas Development Administration's (ODA) understanding of social development has become a key component of the objectives and activities of the British government's aid program. The author considers social development goals and ODA's objectives, the social development approach, social development and ODA policy, basic questions asked when undertaking a social impact analysis of a proposed aid activity, participation planning, and current issues for aid agencies.
