This brief looks at the state of India’s donor program as regards to both its size and scope, identifies India’s role within the multilateral aid scenario and evaluates the challenges and prospects for further growth. It analyzes the evolution of India’s giving in recent years and primarily looks at three related questions: (1) what are the main characteristics that distinguish India’s aid? (2) as India grows into a global donor, how is it likely to view multilateral engagement? and (3) against the backdrop of almost certain growth in giving in the future, what are the challenges and options ahead?
