USAID Forward

As outlined by the USAID Administrator, Dr. Rajiv Shah, it is USAID’s responsibility to ensure we are investing every dollar of American taxpayer money in the most effective, efficient and transparent way possible.  USAID Forward reforms are designed to reach these goals while improving the effectiveness and sustainability of development.

Innovation

Innovation is the USAID hallmark and results in breakthrough outcomes regularly.  Innovation pulls people out of poverty, and enhances U.S. security, and accounts for 80% of countries’ long-term economic growth. It also provides new tools and methods for spreading democracy and improved governance.
