Abstract
AbstractThis chapter summarizes the findings from the two case studies, namely, the Global Fund grants and the “Community Action for Health” project financed by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, covered in this book and elaborates on what these insights mean to further analysis of aid relationships and the sustainability of health aid. It also outlines the methodological validity of this research, its limitations, analytical contribution, and empirical discoveries. The chapter reiterates major theoretical insights and conclusions on how relationships among stakeholders influence the sustainability of health projects. It also delineates the findings that confirmed, contradicted, and/or were new to the literature on actors’ interactions with each other, health aid, and sustainability. The chapter concludes with considerations for the broader academic and policy implications of this study and its insights and outlines possible directions for further research.
