ABOUT THIS EPISODE
How can addressing fragility and conflict in the Indo-Pacific region help shape the future of Australian development assistance? With David Young, Deputy Director of the Lessons Learned Program at the U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR), we explore the importance of understanding local fragilities, the role of donor countries, and lessons from Afghanistan that Australian policymakers can apply.
Finally, David gives one piece of advice to Australian foreign affairs leaders.
