Episode description
The Trump Administration has closed the world’s largest bilateral aid programme, USAID and poured scorn on its past effectiveness.

It has created ‘’ a perfect storm” in the world of development finance. Can there be a happy ending or is development another casualty of Trump’s new global disorder?
