Build Capacity, Not Dependence

The Obama Administration’s fiscal year 2013 budget request for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), if approved, would allow the Agency to feed, provide medial care and educate people in developing countries while engaging the private sector and faith-based groups, said Rajiv Shah, USAID administrator.

The requested funds also would allow the agency to support research in health, agriculture and innovative technologies, Shah said March 14 before a Senate Appropriations subcommittee.
