Donor agency officials working on development assistance programmes in highly corrupt and weak governance environments face the challenge of making a difference in citizens’ lives.

Based on his extensive experience in the governance and anti-corruption field, as well as drawing on work of other practitioners, the author offers operational advice on addressing these challenges.
