Estimating China's Foreign Aid

Japan's JICA Research Institute published on 26 May 2017 "A Note on Estimating China's Foreign Aid Using New Data: 2015 Preliminary Figures" by Naohiro Kitano.

The note presents estimates of China's foreign aid from 2001 to 2015 as defined by the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development and makes comparisons with the net ODA flows of major DAC member countries and emerging providers that report to the DAC. In an earlier analysis, China reported that 52 percent of its foreign aid goes to Africa.
