## Description
As advanced economies cut international aid, **Paola Subacchi** and **Clemence Landers** assess the consequences for developing countries and the global economy. As funding declines, the risks multiply: an aid crisis can deepen debt distress, evolve into a broader development crisis, and ultimately trigger governance breakdowns. At stake is the very purpose of foreign assistance – preventing instability, economic collapse, and governance breakdown.
