Many projects do not have defined baselines against which impacts can be assessed.30 There is only a weak framework to evaluate the impact of Aid for Trade projects and programmes on welfare, growth and inequality.

Priorities may be skewed toward the interests of preferences of donors, and there may be limited country ownership and a range of explicit or implicit conditions.
