Is aid failing the World's poor?

Description

Last year the Worldwide aid budget topped 179-billion US-dollars. It was an all time high, but is it delivering for the World’s poor?

Most of the poorest people on the planet live in subsaharan Africa, yet poverty remains entrenched. Indeed, over a trillion dollars in aid has been provided to Africa over the last 60 years, and critics say it hasn't worked.

In this podcast I ask international aid veteran Tim Costello if the foreign aid model is broken.
