Abstract
This chapter highlights the role of diverse donor bureaucracies in a transforming development cooperation landscape. The participation of donor bureaucracies beyond foreign affairs and development agencies in international cooperation presents both challenges and opportunities. Positive aspects of diverse bureaucratic engagement include the mobilisation of additional financial resources for development, the contribution of thematic expertise, and the enlargement of policy networks relevant for international cooperation. At the same time, differences in bureaucratic interests and approaches can contribute to the coordination and policy coherence deficits known to limit aid and development effectiveness. The chapter elaborates on these prospects and concerns and provides an overview of bureaucratic engagement in international cooperation across donor contexts.
