Abstract

Recent evaluations of humanitarian aid in the Horn and Liberia regions of Africa are, given the circumstances of complex political emergencies, notably positive. ODA reviews and the like would, therefore, do well to reflect anew on stability and (economic development aid) investment, compared with instability and (humanitarian relief aid) investment. But jobs done are not necessarily also jobs well done. This account of some recent consultancies explores some of the other side of the humanitarian aid story as well, which these consultancies also report, for example as regards UN agencies and non-governmental organisations.
