Investigation of Humanitarian Aid Effectiveness In the Water Supply and Sanitation (WSS) Sectors

Andrew Pannone

In today’s world of finite humanitarian aid finances, it is important to ask - “Is foreign aid actually effective?” Many scholars have sought answers to this question using econometric and political science methodologies.  However, economic and political indicators cannot paint the full picture, so in order to broaden this inquiry, we use sustainable development indicators in the WSS sectors as a basis for analysis.  We utilize data gathered from AidData, the UN, and the Worldbank.
