The rules of international development are being rewritten in real time. In this episode, we sit down with Dr Stephan Klingebiel, head of the Department of Inter- and Transnational Cooperation at the German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS), for a frank look at what's really happening beneath the funding cuts and headlines.

We cover the collapse of US development spending, the quiet fight over the language of the SDGs, why no single power is stepping up to fill the void, and what a record number of autocracies worldwide means for global governance. Klingebiel also shares his honest take on what this all means for careers in the sector, and the "pockets of effectiveness" still worth watching for.

A must-listen for anyone working in, or hoping to work in, international development.
