Foreign Aid

foreign aid, the international transfer of capital, goods, or services from a country or international organization for the benefit of the recipient country or its population. Aid can be economic, military, or emergency humanitarian (e.g., aid given following natural disasters).

Types of Foreign Aid:

    Bilateral aid – when the capital flows from a developed nation to a developing nation
    Multilateral aid – when the capital flows to developing nations from a world agency such as the World Bank
    Tied aid – when funds are used to buy imports from the donor country or for a specific project
    Project aid – when the funds are used to finance a particular project



40% of the richer developing nations get twice as much aid as poorer 40%.
