My guest this week is <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://www.cgdev.org/content/expert/detail/483/">Nancy Birdsall</a>, president of the Center for Global Development. Along with <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://www.cgdev.org/content/expert/detail/16573/">William Savedoff</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://www.cgdev.org/section/about/staff#Ayah">Ayah Mahgoub</a>, Nancy is working on a potential new way of disbursing foreign assistance called <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://www.cgdev.org/section/initiatives/_active/codaid">Cash on Delivery Aid</a>. COD Aid seeks to devise simple, results-based contracts that reward developing countries for making progress towards previously agreed goals鈥攕uch as increased primary school completion rates, vaccination coverage, or access to clean water.</p> <p>In the podcast, Nancy explains that the traditional mode of giving aid, in which donors often take an active role in prescribing which actions recipient governments should take, can undermine incentives for governments to identify problems and design and implement locally appropriate solutions. “We have to create a system in which outside resources actually help the developing country governments find out what works in their particular setting,” says Nancy.</p> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/2010/02/17/nancy-birdsall-on-cash-on-delivery-aid/" class="more-link">Read More…</a></p> <div class="powerpress_player" id="powerpress_player_4785"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> pp_flashembed( 'powerpress_player_4785', {src: 'https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/wp-content/plugins/powerpress/FlowPlayerClassic.swf', width: 320, height: 24, wmode: 'transparent' }, {config: { autoPlay: false, autoBuffering: false, initialScale: 'scale', showFullScreenButton: false, showMenu: false, videoFile: 'https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://media.libsyn.com/media/cgdev/100210_Birdsall.mp3', loop: false, autoRewind: true } } ); </script> <p class="powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3">Podcast: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://media.libsyn.com/media/cgdev/100210_Birdsall.mp3" class="powerpress_link_pinw" target="_blank" title="Play in new window" onclick="return powerpress_pinw('160-podcast');">Play in new window</a> | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://media.libsyn.com/media/cgdev/100210_Birdsall.mp3" class="powerpress_link_d" title="Download">Download</a> </p> </p> <h4 align="right"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/2010/02/17/nancy-birdsall-on-cash-on-delivery-aid/#comments" title="Comment on Nancy Birdsall on Cash on Delivery Aid">3 Comments »</a></h4> <div style="height:30px;"> </div> </div> <div id="post-150"> <h1><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/2010/02/10/development-and-obamas-budget/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Development and Obama鈥檚 Budget; Interview with CGD鈥檚 Sarah Jane Staats">Development and Obama鈥檚 Budget; Interview with CGD鈥檚 Sarah Jane Staats</a></h1> <h4 class="noline">February 10, 2010 </h4> <h4 style="font-weight: normal;">Posted by <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/author/lawrence-macdonald/" title="Posts by Lawrence MacDonald">Lawrence MacDonald</a> in <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/category/rethinking-us-foreign-assistance/" title="View all posts in Rethinking US Foreign Assistance" rel="category tag">Rethinking US Foreign Assistance</a> Tags: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/tag/foreign-aid/" rel="tag">Foreign Aid</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/tag/hivaids/" rel="tag">HIV/AIDS</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/tag/sarah-jane-staats/" rel="tag">Sarah Jane Staats</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111/http://blogs.cgdev.org/global_prosperity_wonkcast/tag/usaid/" rel="tag">USAID</a> </h4> <p><p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110729060111im_/http://www.cgdev.org/files/8092_image_SarahJaneHise.jpg" alt="Sarah Jane Staats" align="left" style="padding:6px"/>I’m joined for this week鈥檚 CGD Wonkcast by Sarah Jane Staats, director of policy outreach here at the Center for Global Development.
