Worldwide, USAID is shifting the way it works by providing one-quarter of all funding directly to local organizations by 2025. This change involves including local actors in every stage of the development, implementation, and evaluation of programming. Additionally, at least half of USAID funded activities will incorporate local perspectives and involvement, helping put locally led organizations in the driver\u2019s seat of their development agendas.<\/p>\n<p>During the November 3 meeting, also called \u2018Industry Day\u2019, USAID officials and local organizations started the conversation to identify the necessary steps to implement this shift in development programs. Topics included information sharing, tips for small and newer organizations, and tools to meet requirements for bidders on USAID projects.<\/p>\n<p>During the event, Acting USAID Mission Director Theodora Dell said, \u201cWe have one major objective: to expand and amplify engagement with partners on the ground that have real roots in the community. USAID is committed to helping Mozambicans build a healthier, safer, more democratic, and more prosperous country for all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the New Partner Initiative, visit www.usaid.gov\/npi. Organizations interested in working with USAID can register online at \u2018WorkwithUSAID.org\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Inclusion of local organizations is a critical component of the broader U.S. Government assistance in Mozambique. Improvements in this sector contribute to better health and create an environment for diverse economic growth. In close collaboration with the Government of Mozambique, the U.S. Government provides more than $500 million in annual assistance to help Mozambicans build a healthier, more democratic, more secure, more prosperous county for all.<\/p>\n<p><b>About USAID<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) leads the U.S. Government\u2019s international development and disaster assistance through partnerships and investments that save lives, reduce poverty, strengthen democratic governance, and help people emerge from humanitarian crises.
