The United States is on the verge of spending $200 billion over the next four years in foreign aid. Here’s our chance to shape the future of global development.
Re-architect the U.S. approach to global development by prioritizing sustainable economic growth, innovation, and transitioning away from project-based aid models in favor of direct partnerships with countries and communities.
Position the United States as the partner of first resort for any country and community that wants to use to innovation to accelerate progress towards achieving their development objectives. Support countries that want to build their own domestic innovation ecosystems.
Pressure U.S. global development agencies to take action now to pay for results instead of activities, scale proven innovations to the world’s hardest problems, and direct more funding to local, national, and front-line innovators with a track record of impact.
Solving the world's hardest problems will take a transformation in global development. We are championing policy reforms to empower innovators, break down barriers, and unlock funding. We’ve written a blueprint for the way forward.
