About us: Our Vision

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is an independent government agency that provides economic, development, and humanitarian assistance around the world in support of the foreign policy goals of the United States. Established in 1961 and beginning operations in Romania in 1990, USAID's assistance program helps to foster Romania's transition to a market-oriented democracy and focuses assistance on the areas of economic growth, democracy-building, and social sector restructuring.

The overall goals of USAID's assistance program are to support economic freedom and growth, democratic attitudes and institutions, and improvements in the quality of life for Romanians. USAID provides funding to specialized implementing organizations that have the technical skills, expertise, and experience to work effectively with Romanian counterparts to achieve sustainable results. So far, USAID has committed more than $400 million to Romanian assistance programs in the following areas: privatization, financial sector development, private sector development, energy sector reform, improved environmental management and protection, democratic governance, civil society development, decentralized public administration and local government strengthening, women's reproductive health, and reform of the child welfare system.
