description | This article examines the evolution of the European Union's(EU) development aid policy
towards sub-Saharan Africa since the 2000s by looking at its main achievements
and challenges. As a leading donor of
world politics, the EU provides development and humanitarian aid to African
countries since the early period of European integration. In addition to aid
provision, the EU is one of main trading
partner of African countries. Over the past two decades, the Union development cooperation
policy has undergone significant changes. Politically, it strengthened
political conditionalities and expanded the role of civil society in
development policy. Economically, it shifted from reciprocal trade preferences
to non-reciprocal trade preferences. It
introduced performance-based aid allocations in aid management. With these changes,
the Union removed the peculiar characteristics of EU development cooperation
policy and followed global trends in its development cooperation policy. |
