To this end, the study uses dynamic generalised method of moments (GMM) panel data with annual series for 33 sub-Saharan African countries. The econometric estimates reveal a significant negative direct effect of ODA on human capital in sub-Saharan Africa. In addition, the results show a positive and significant direct effect of institutional quality on human capital in sub-Saharan Africa. The econometric estimates also show a positive and significant effect of the interaction between ODA and institutional quality on human capital in sub-Saharan Africa. In light of the results of this study, we suggest that governments invest in strengthening institutions, especially governance, public administration and the judiciary, in order to create sound and effective institutions that promote the best allocation of aid.fr
