Description

USAID is reorienting its strategies, partnership models, and program practices to achieve greater development outcomes and work toward a time when foreign assistance is no longer necessary. USAID calls it the Journey to Self-Reliance (J2SR)—that the purpose of foreign assistance should be to end the need for its existence. As partners on this journey, USAID is empowering host country governments and USAID partners to achieve locally-sustained results, helping countries mobilize public and private revenues, strengthening local capacities, and accelerating enterprise-driven development. This approach fosters stable, resilient, and prosperous countries that are more self-reliant, and prioritizes enduring partnerships. All of USAID reforms are designed to accelerate development progress and work toward the day when partner countries can finance and implement solutions to their own development challenges. In doing this, USAID presents a different model to the developing world— namely, a strategic partnership that strengthens governance institutions, rules and practices to advance a country’s own development.
