Why?

• Evaluations point to importance of politics

• Limited impact of public sector reform, best practice approaches

• Concerns about corruption

• Work in fragile states highlights politics of state building

• Problem driven analysis (traction, risks)

• Scope for “doing better”

Challenges

• Impact fragmented: no fundamental re-think about development, donor roles

• Divergence between internal debate and external narrative (alignment, reform in return for aid, all good things go together, zero tolerance for corruption)

• No changes to donor staffing, incentives• Risk missing opportunities• PEA just the next donor fashion?
