The aim of the study to present the implications of conditionality of aid and policy in general as well as conditionality in Irish Aid in particular towards Sudan..It considers development policy in relation to both economic conditionality and political conditionality. .The study will demonstrate a clear trend in Irish policy towards the norms of other large western sates during the 1990s .Also the study will refer to all the various kinds of contributions that Ireland has made to Sudan focused programmes including Irish contribution to the United Nations relief, to World Bank and IMF projects. The research focuses on the approach of Irish aid from both a national and a global perspective. A large proportion of Irish aid is administered multilaterally through the European Union and other international organizations but it is beyond the scope of this study to cover this area.
