Description

Home » About USAID

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is the lead organization within the U.S. government that provides assistance to developing countries to help with their economic and social development. USAID’s roots go back to the Marshall Plan and reconstruction efforts after World War II. In 1961, President John F. Kennedy signed into law the Foreign Affairs Assistance Act, which created the United States Agency for International Development.

To date, USAID has programs in over 100 countries worldwide – in Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and the Near East, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Europe and Eurasia. The Agency works closely with recipient country governments, bi-lateral and multilateral donors, other U.S. government agencies, and a host of implementing partners in the public and private sectors, including civil society, business, and academia, to achieve our shared objectives.
