USAID: partnership for people

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is the lead agency for the U.S. Government providing economic development and humanitarian assistance to people around the world. As an active partner of the Government and people of Senegal, USAID listens to local concerns and priorities, and then responds with joint activities to help reduce poverty, promote democracy and economic growth, recover from disasters, and prevent conflicts.

In Senegal, USAID has invested over $1 billion in a wide range of projects since 1961 -- an average of nearly $30 million each year -- to tackle constraints to national development.

See the activities section for detailed information about USAID's work.
