This policy submission by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) examines the challenges of aid delivery to Small Island Developing States (SIDS).

The document proposes eight reforms to make aid more effective, including untying aid from donor procurement, harmonising policies across donors, and replacing GDP-per-capita assessments with vulnerability indices.

This briefing, prepared for COP-7 in February 2004, outlines strategies for Small Island Developing States (SIDS) to build capacity to combat invasive alien species (IAS).
