Abstract
This chapter compares the development cooperation policies and programmes of the three largest development assistance providers of the Global South—Brazil, China and India—to arrive at commonalities and differences in emerging powers’ development cooperation. While there are convergences in emerging powers’ development assistance, there are as many divergences. Emerging powers are not a homogeneous group and do not align their development assistance programme to any set standards or rules, unlike the OECD-DAC. These countries are trying and testing their own aid programmes, which is evolving not as per any strategic framework created by the government, but as per the preferences and priorities of the leadership and the changing international environment. Despite several domestic constraints, these countries have improved on their earlier development assistance programme, which points to the significance of foreign aid in their foreign policy.
