Equity, Evaluation, and International Cooperation: In Pursuit of Proximate Peers in an African City

By Gabriella Carolini, associate professor of urban studies and planning

Oxford University Press · 2022

In this book, Carolini emphasizes that equitable partnership on the ground delivers the best results in the Global South. In her view, the best development projects involve close cooperation between proximate peers: the sharing of information among partners, a consistent presence on the ground, nonhierarchical governance, and a drive toward "equity," in many forms, as a key project goal.
