A Cautious New Approach: China’s Growing Trilateral Aid Cooperation

by Denghua Zhang

About this book

Denghua Zhang examines development projects in which China works with another donor or an international organisation to assist a third country. The study asks how these arrangements are negotiated and what they reveal about the institutions and motivations shaping foreign assistance.

Case studies consider a China–UNDP cassava project in Cambodia, cooperation with Australia on malaria in Papua New Guinea and a China–US food-security project in Timor-Leste. Chapters connect these examples with Chinese aid administration, international engagement and reform. Developed from a 2017 doctoral thesis, the book includes figures, tables, a glossary and references.
