Episode #2: The Shifting International Development Financing Landscape with Annalisa Prizzon - a podcast by A-id Think Tank

For episode #2 of the A-id podcast, we were joined by Annalisa Prizzon to discuss the major shifts in the international development finance landscape and the related challenges and opportunities for low- and middle-income countries. 

Annalisa is a Senior Research Fellow at the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) in London. She has widely published on issues related to financing development, aid and external debt. 

To start things off we discuss how the development landscape has evolved over the past 20 years. Annalisa tells us about the transition away from aid and how donor countries are now focusing on infrastructure development projects. We then go on talk about debt carrying capacity with a specific mention to China and how it’s developing a new financing equilibrium. We conclude by discussing COVID-19 and the legacy that it will have on aid and financing.
