                 African countries, too.
                 In conclusion, to grant more ownership for the locals we need to take into consideration
                 whether the planned form of aid is prioritized in the developing country's own agenda, and

                 the way it is designed and implemented. In reality, however, ownership requires societal
                 consensus, which poses as an obstacle as the form of governance in third world

                 countries are, unfortunately, rarely democratic."
