Descrição: Fragility poses well-known challenges for development co-operation. But evidence gleaned from 315 evaluations of aid effectiveness in Afghanistan, Mali and South Sudan over the period 2008-21 shows that aid does not make extremely fragile contexts more stable, more capable or better governed. Overall, programmes for stabilisation, capacity building, good governance and gender equality are rarely effective as they overestimate local capacity and underestimate resistance from entrenched elites. Neither money nor a fine-tuning of aid modalities will fix the problems. Providers instead should take a more realistic and modest approach and allocate aid to sectors where there is a reasonable probability of success. This will require more systematic research into the relationship between aid effectiveness and degrees of fragility.
