Abstract

Aid Sanctions Child Mortality Foreign Aid Foreign Aid Prohibitions Foreign Aid Restrictions FOS: Humanities infant mortality Maternal mortality sanctions Smart Sanctions Targeted Sanctions Global Health
To build this dataset, we searched four established sanctions databases – HSE/HSEO Database, the Threat and Imposition of Economic Sanctions (TIES) database, The Targeted Sanctions Consortium (TSC) database, and the EUSANCT database – for evidence of an aid sanction and extracted the identity of the sanctioning and sanctioned countries, the year imposed, and the year lifted (if not on-going) for each sanction case. We checked for additional aid sanctions not captured in these four databases by searching for cases imposed by the European Union and the United States in the online content of the European Parliament and US Department of State, respectively. For other individual nations and regional bodies imposing aid sanctions, we screened online search engines to gather information about these cases and then confirmed the information with official government documents such as policy orders on government websites. To ensure consistency and reliability, three additional co-authors reviewed the aid sanctions dataset independently.
