The UK government is driving inequality in the world’s poorest countries by “dogmatically” funding private sector health and education projects instead of using aid money to boost public systems, a report has said.
Rather than addressing the needs of the world’s poorest people, the Department for International Development’s (DfID) close relationship with the private sector is filling the pockets of big corporations, according to Profiting from poverty, again, a study published on Friday by the campaigning group Global Justice Now (GJN).
