Those who work in the development and humanitarian sphere know that local ownership of international assistance is the route to greater equity, effectiveness, and sustainability. USAID has embraced this understanding and redoubled our commitment to shift funding and decision-making power to the people, organizations, and institutions driving change in their communities. Similar commitments are shared by actors across the development and humanitarian ecosystem, from national and local to U.S.-based or international organizations.
