{"id":6,"count":17,"description":"A large proportion of aid money ends up benefiting people and institutions of the Global North rather than the Global South. The aid funds serve the agendas of the rich donors and much of the money does not even reach its intended beneficiaries. Typically, more aid funds end up in the coffers of INGOs than to institutions in the countries to which the aid is supposedly 'allocated.'  Moreover, as donors have moved toward funding indigenous in-country organizations, the INGOs have frequently set up local their NGO subsidiaries to be better positioned to continue receiving these funds. Instead of providing direct funds to capable ministries of health - who do the bulk of the work, funds often go to INGOs to implement donor-driven health programs that often fail to align with or meet the health needs of global communities.","link":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/globalhealthjustice\/category\/reimagining-aid\/","name":"Reimagining Aid","slug":"reimagining-aid","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/globalhealthjustice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/6","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/globalhealthjustice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/globalhealthjustice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/globalhealthjustice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=6"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
