International development

At PricewaterhouseCoopers we are committed to supporting stable economies and promoting effective governance, working with governments and donor agencies, both in the UK and overseas, to help drive social and economic change. PwC has successfully delivered numerous high quality projects in association with multinational and bilateral aid agencies over many years, including the UK's Department for International Development (DFID).

We work to help our clients respond to the modernisation, development and poverty reduction agendas rapidly and effectively. Our interest in broad governance issues stems from our involvement in supporting institutional change within central and local government and facilitating stakeholder participation in political and administrative processes at all levels.

We bring an innovative approach to the management of public sector change, and have expertise in designing, delivering and managing training programmes, mentoring and public administration reform policy.
