Abstract | This report on ActionAid's new research in Tanzania shows that donors are still using their influence to push poor countries into privatising basic services such as water, with little concern for the views of the public or poor people's needs. Private companies hardly bring in private capital nor are they sharing risks. The risk is still carried by the public sector. |
