| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this literature review is to examine in detail the structure (architecture) of aid in Ethiopia´s health sector vis-à-vis the Paris declaration on aid coordination. The focus is giving a literature review on the previous and existing approaches to aid coordination by taking the Ethiopian health sector as a case in point. Significant number of literature have explained and elaborated on the issue and have contributed to give an overview of the challenges manifested in the Ethiopian health sector. As such, the thesis, by assessing various literature, stresses that, even though both donors and the Ethiopian government have made an effort to fully implement the PD, achievements have not been comprehensive. This is due to the fact that both the government and donor agencies are not fully committed to implement the Paris declaration to have one plan, one budget, and one monitoring framework, and the existence of weak enforcement mechanisms for donors that do not follow the PD principles´, absence of willingness, and the ability to change their (donors´) behaviors (policies, processes, and procedures) are at best questionable and at worst not real. | en_US |
