Measuring the effects of development assistance: Impact on democracy
This session will be based on the EBA report titled 'Effects of Swedish and International Democracy Aid' which explores the effects of aid on countries' level of democracy and under what conditions it might work better, through a quantitative comparative analysis.
Questions that will be discussed in the session include: Measuring impacts using secondary data, what made it feasible and a good option in this study? How were measures of democracy identified and selected for the analysis? How was the causal relationship between aid and democracy outcomes determined?
