New Report on USAID
October 27th, 2009 by Jason
Thomas Carothers has released a new report, “Revitalizing Democracy Assistance: The Challenge of USAID” that explores needed reforms in foreign democracy assistance. The report recommends three key reforms: decreasing bureaucratization, bolstering local ownership of projects and strengthening the institutional emphasis of democracy promotion within USAID.
The report concludes “a successful revitalization of USAID’s democracy and governance work would be a telling signal that the Obama administration is forging significant institutional changes that will help the United States meet the serious challenges that democracy’s uncertain global fortunes now pose.”
