dc.description.abstractNot much is known about exit strategies in development cooperation, whereas the importance of such knowledge is emphasized in an evaluation study of the Netherlands withdrawing as a bilateral donor from more than half of its donor countries (IOB 2016). Recently, multiple Private Development Initiatives (PDIs) have turned to the Dutch foundation Wilde Ganzen, that (financially) supports PDIs, with questions on how to end their activities. In addition, the most recent survey among nearly 800 Dutch PDIs shows 12,8 percent is planning on ending its activities, of which 18,2 percent is hoping to do so within the year (Kinsbergen, PDI Database 2017). The aim of this study is to obtain an insight in how partnerships between PDIs and their local partners are ended and thereby contribute to the current knowledge on exit strategies in development cooperation in general and PDIs in particular. In this study, emotional connections were found to be PDIs motivations for starting a partnership, but turned out to be reasons for ending that partnership as well. Ending partnerships mainly involved processes initiated by the PDI, in which the local partner was often not actively involved. Although not all conditions for exit, set by the literature on exit strategies, were met, all projects continued after the partnership ended. Including both PDI and local partner allowed for a comprehensive understanding of their exit processes. Future exit processes as well as future research should involve local partners, as they turn out to have a clear vision of what is needed during such a process.en_US
