ALADIN Lunch Seminar with Sue Unsworth

The speaker will be Sue Unsworth, who will review the recent use of political economy analyses (such as DfID’s Drivers of Change approach and the Dutch Strategic Governance and Corruption Analysis or SGACA) for the assessment of governance processes in aid-recipient developing countries.

Sue Unsworth is currently a Research Associate at the Institute of Development Studies and previously served as Chief Governance Advisor at the UK Department of International Development, where she was responsible for the implementation of the Drivers of Change approach and served as advisor to the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the setting up of the SGACA.
