Development Innovation Ventures

Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) aims to find and support breakthrough solutions to the world's most important development challenges—interventions with the power to change millions of lives at a fraction of the usual cost.  Through our grant program DIV invests in these game-changing ideas, rigorously testing them using cutting-edge analytical methods, and scales solutions that prove they work.

Recognizing that good ideas can come from anywhere, DIV accepts proposals from any organization, working in any USAID-active country, with a development solution that is several times more cost effective than current best practice.
