| dc.description.alternativeAbstract | To begin with, this study identified the differences and similarities between Korean and Dutch ODA styles in Bangladesh. As both nations provide aid on the topic of water, these ODA projects were utilized to figure out the (dis)similarities. Although both countries joined the OECD DAC list, Korea does not have the same colonial past as the Netherlands, meaning that its approach to ODA differs and that it is perceived differently by recipients. <br> <br>Next, this study investigated whether the working methods of both nations affect their projects’ perceived aid effectiveness. Donors and local NGOs funded by the Netherlands and Korea provided insights into the effectiveness through online interviews. <br> <br>In conclusion, after analyzing and comparing the Korean and Dutch ODA working styles, differences were found between the literature and the actual working methods and between the donors themselves. These dissimilarities do, in fact, affect the perceived aid effectiveness of their work on water-focused ODA projects. | - |
