This panel at the 2018 Australasian Aid Conference discussed the theory and practice of adaptive programming and how we can find ways to implement flexible programming within the context of an increasingly results-driven development agenda. Panellists drew on their experiences to speak to the importance of an adaptive approach to programming, and the implications and challenges of this, from the perspective of bilateral and multilateral donors, implementers and consultants.

Panellists:
Alexandra Bridges, Oxford Policy Management (Chair)
Ben French, Oxford Policy Management
Graham Teskey, Abt Associates
Sakuntala Akmeemana, DFAT
Nicola Follis, Palladium

The 2018 Australasian Aid Conference was held at Crawford School of Public Policy, ANU, on 13-14 February, and was organised by the Development Policy Centre in partnership with The Asia Foundation.
