Mobilising Domestic Resources to Help Mali’s Poorest Populations: The role of French development aid
Overview
Development cooperation has a major role to play in supporting fragile states to mobilize their own resources in order to fund basic social services. In Mali, French aid aims to build the technical capacity of Malian administrations to collect tax by fighting against fraud and tax evasion.

France must support watch-dog organizations to ensure greater transparency and accountability on the use of these resources for the benefit of the poorest.
