International aid
organizations provide food, medications and hope
for millions but how many refugees actually
received aid? How much was lost, stolen or
simply left behind?
A trucker picks up a
full load of food and medications, sells half of
it and delivers the other half.
A mother
was separated from her child in the confusion.
How can they find each

Elections are held for
the first time in a region. How can you ensure
that each person votes only once and that each
vote is counted?

governments are getting their full revenue from
tariffs, duties and sales of imports and exports
at their ports and borders?
How Can We Quantify
Success?
“It's about supporting people to
identify their own solutions, and teaching them
how toadvocate for the adoption and
implementation of those solutions. It's
about empowering them, supporting
their ideas, providing the right tools -and
appropriate incentives- to support their
leadership and responsibility to sustain further
progress on their own. This, I believe, is what
United States foreign assistance must be all
about.
