We need your help to continue our work as an independent monitor of Australia's aid and trade.
Donate nowAustralian aid priorities
Australia’s aid program is plagued by skewed priorities and methods of delivery which privilege Australian commercial and strategic interests. AID/WATCH has identified a number of trends within our aid program which impede our program’s effectiveness, promote Australian interests and foster a growth-led development model which does not put people in control of their own development futures.
Issues to watch out for in the aid program
- Aiding Australia's national interest
- Aiding Governance
- Technical Assistance
- Security interests in aid
- Aiding climate change
- Commercial interests in aid
