The book adopts an innovative approach to dealing with aid effectiveness, by highlighting the relevance of better spending, rather than excessive spending. It does so with real-life examples of interventions made in the global south to realize the vision of 'thinking globally and acting locally'. These case studies speak to the significance of communities' role in shouldering responsibility for planning, financing, operating, and maintaining local developmental initiatives. The examples also demonstrate how aid serves its purpose when used as an investment in communities and enterprising individuals, in order to realize the strategic impact of giving and build a local 'receiving mechanism' for indigenizing and achieving global development goals. The book references cases of better spending by governments, philanthropists, and CSOs from across Asia, Africa, and Latin America on a range of issues and will, thus, be of interest to development practitioners, policy makers, donors, philanthropists, civil society organizations, academics and students of international development studies"--
