This podcast is the final episode in the three-part series of audio documentaries produced as part of NSI's Southern Perspectives project. A dominant theme in the project is the role played by Northern donors in delivering international assistance. Southern concerns — the concerns of developing countries — are often left out of the terms and conditions that have governed aid agreements. Our Southern partners share their perspectives on these issues and the impact of these power imbalances.

This podcast is the second in the three-part series of audio documentaries produced as part of NSI's Southern Perspectives project. A dominant theme in the project is the role played by Northern donors in delivering international assistance. Looking closer, Southern concerns are often left out of the terms and conditions of the aid provided to them. Our Southern partners share their perspectives on several questions. What role should donor institutions such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund play in the development "system"? What are the concerns of recipient countries? How should developing countries participate in the reform of the development architecture?
