OVERVIEW
USAID WORKS TO ELEVATE DEVELOPMENT AND SEIZE PIVOTAL OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH EXPANDED PARTNERSHIPS WITH NONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS

INTRODUCTION
In April 2012, Dr. Rajiv Shah, Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development, released his second annual letter, stating: "Two years ago, President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton both called for elevating development within America's foreign policy. Many people in the development community assumed their call to elevate development was about recognizing the importance of the work USAID and others have done for decades. But the President and Secretary's call for elevating development was not a show of gratitude. It was not a reward. It was a challenge. It meant we would have to move past old debates and embrace new opportunities. Over the last two years, we've worked hard to take up the President and the Secretary's call." One of USAID's key responses to the Quadrennial Development and Diplomacy Review (QDDR) and its call to "elevate development" in U.S. Foreign Policy is USAID Forward. USAID Forward is a set of reforms aimed to transform the Agency into a "modern development enterprise," focused on more innovative and strategic approaches to development cutting across the sectors of the

Agency's work. USAID Forward, with an emphasis on innovation and a relentless focus on results, is fostering new partnerships with civil society and the private sector. The USAID Forward reforms encompass the universe of Agency operations, internal and external, and focus on streamlining business processes, formalizing evaluation and learning methodologies to improve performance, and promoting innovative solutions to development challenges. One of the central objectives of USAID Forward is Implementation and Procurement Reform (IPR), including the expansion of USAID partnerships with a wider range of development actors, specifically nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), small businesses, and local civil society and private-sector organizations. Increasing direct relationships with local organizations furthers a key goal of USAID Forward and IPR to increase the sustainability and cost effectiveness of the Agency's development investments. Nearly two years into this reform process, the Agency has reformed procurement procedures, revised regulations, amended policies, and elevated learning and accountability around capacity development to help transform USAID culture to one more amenable to fostering direct relationships with a broad range of implementing partners, including local organizations.

In 2010, USAID created the Development Innovation Ventures Fund, which uses a venture capital model to fund, pilot, and bring creative solutions to scale. In addition, the Agency has initiated Grand Challenges for Development, which identifies solvable development problems and provides a framework for overcoming scientific and technological barriers to find scalable solutions to address the problems. The first Grand Challenge, Saving Lives at Birth, generated more than 600 proposals to address the survival needs of women and newborns in low-resource, rural settings. USAID Forward is also providing opportunities to reorganize the Agency and elevate innovation and partnerships. For example, the Private and Voluntary Cooperation Division has been renamed the Local Sustainability (LS) Division and is now part of the Office of Innovation and Development Alliances (IDEA), which is working to more quickly, cost-efficiently, and sustainably achieve development goals by supporting innovations that lead to significant improvements in development impact. During the past year, the LS Division continued its efforts to expand partnerships with a wide range of private voluntary organizations (PVOs) to support their direct activities, as well as their work with local partners. The LS Division also has expanded direct

relationships with a wide range of local organizations. USAID recognizes the contributions that PVOs and local organizations make to the world's development objectives and believes that PVOs and local organizations, as participants on the frontlines of development, are essential to the process of generating low-cost, transformative solutions to improve lives worldwide. To facilitate its humanitarian and development work, USAID registers PVOs so that they are eligible to compete for funding opportunities with the Agency. The purpose of the PVO registration is to: Identify PVOs that engage in, or intend to engage in, voluntary foreign aid operations Determine whether PVOs meet certain general operating guidelines and accountability standards Certify that PVOs are eligible to apply for USAID assistance IDEA/LS is the Agency lead for the Registry of U.S. and international PVOs and has made significant improvements toward streamlining the online registration system, created in 2008, including efforts to enhance the submission experience and ensure the accuracy of the data collected.

2012 VOLAG REPORT

The Report of Voluntary Agencies Engaged in Overseas Relief and Development (VolAg Report) provides a snapshot of the work of the U.S. and international PVOs that are registered with USAID. As defined by USAID, a PVO is a tax-exempt, nonprofit organization that solicits and receives cash contributions from the general public and conducts, or anticipates conducting, international program activities that are consistent with U.S. Foreign Policy objectives (see 22CFR203.2 for complete definition). PVOs register with USAID to establish and maintain eligibility to compete for grants and cooperative agreements. Information about registration can be found at idea.usaid.gov/ls/pvo/ The 2012 VolAg Report includes a brief description and a summary of financial activities for the 579 U.S. PVOs, 95 international PVOs, and 6 U.S. Cooperative Development Organizations (CDOs) registered with USAID as of April 1, 2012. The information contained in this report is also available through the online PVO Registry, a searchable database that is updated daily, at pvo.usaid.gov/usaid/

PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Partnerships are a central component of USAID's vision of a modern development enterprise and the Agency's ongoing major initiatives to increase effectiveness in meeting development objectives. Working closely with local implementing partners and building their capacity is a key aspect of the Agency's implementation and procurement reform effort. The LS Division is at the cutting edge of these efforts. The Division implements several programs that complement IPR and works with and builds the capacity of local partners to strengthen local development outcomes. IDEA/LS leads the Agency's partnership building with PVOs, NGOs, and cooperatives. In this role, IDEA/LS: serves as an institutional bridge between the Agency and the PVO, NGO, and cooperative communities; provides support and services to Agency staff and partners that are developing strategic partnerships involving NGOs, PVOs, or cooperatives; informs Agency efforts to develop innovative, effective programs that strengthen PVOs, NGOs, and cooperatives in USAID partner countries; and

provides leadership on the Agency's outreach to the PVO, NGO, and cooperative communities as well as on policy formulation and issues of concern to these communities. In addition to PVO Registration, IDEA/LS also manages the following programs: The Development Grants Program (DGP) focuses on building and expanding partnerships with U.S. and local, in-country organizations that have little or no direct experience in working with USAID. The DGP program enables grantees to develop their organizational and technical capabilities while implementing innovative development activities in their home countries. Through the DGP, USAID aims to create stronger, flexible, and sustainable organizations that can rapidly respond to the evolving needs of those they serve. In addition to receiving funding for activities and institutional support, DGP grantees have access to capacity development support to enhance their organizational and/or technical capabilities. This support is nimble and customized to grantees' needs, with a focus on empowering local capacitybuilding service providers where possible. The DGP staff helps contribute to the expertise of

USAID's Mission staff and regional USAID Local Capacity Development Teams. The Cooperative Development Program (CDP) builds the intellectual capital of major partner U.S. cooperatives and cooperative development organizations and has led to notable achievements, including new research on cooperative law and regulation, the development of tools to measure cooperative development, and the creation of a Comprehensive Guide for Rural Electric Cooperative Development. Though modest in budget, the CDP enables partners to address critical challenges to cooperative development, to develop and test solutions and, where successful, to incorporate these solutions in their broader programs, creating substantial impact and a significant multiplier effect. The Small Project Assistance Program (SPA) / Peace Corps is a joint collaboration with the Peace Corps through which volunteers support USAID development efforts, helping to implement small self-help activities to support community-level development projects in sectors ranging from health to agriculture to small-enterprise development. SPA-sponsored projects focus on developing local community groups, including local associations, government entities, schools, and NGOs.

Volunteers also work with NGOs to improve services to surrounding communities. Participants learn key development skills that encompass program design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation, integrated planning, and service delivery. The Limited Excess Property Program (LEPP) enables USAID-registered PVOs to access government excess property for use in their overseas development programs. LEPP partners are able to obtain property, such as hospital beds, vehicles and computers, through access to the U.S. General Services Administration's and the Defense Logistics Agency's Disposition Services' excess property programs.

LEVERAGING PRIVATE RESOURCES FOR DEVELOPMENT

PVOs and local NGOs help USAID support local capacities to address local needs, bringing additional resources to bear and facilitating sustainable development worldwide. By enlisting the PVO community's expertise and program delivery capacities, USAID is better able to direct humanitarian relief and development assistance to areas of need. As the data presented in this report indicate, the privately generated resources that

6 2012 VOLAG REPORT

PVOs spend on international development activities far exceed the resources they receive from USAID or the U.S. Government. During fiscal year 2010, U.S. PVOs registered with USAID received $20.9 billion in support from nonU.S. Government and private sources, over six times the $3.3 billion that USAID channeled to USAID-registered PVOs. Other U.S. Government agencies and international organizations provided an additional $3.6 billion, bringing the total private and public support and revenue for registered U.S. PVOs to $27.8 billion. USAID also provided more than $239 million to registered international PVOs in 2010, augmenting their $3.6 billion in direct spending on international relief and development activities. Meanwhile, U.S. CDOs received $316 million from USAID during 2010, as well as $293 million from other sources, to support their efforts to build and strengthen cooperative organizations overseas.

DOING BUSINESS WITH USAID

To implement its worldwide humanitarian and development activities, USAID uses a number of acquisition and assistance instruments, including contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, and purchase orders. USAID negotiates and initiates these instruments to obtain the commodities and technical assistance the Agency requires to achieve its objectives. Organizations seeking to work with USAID will find useful policy and business information at the following Web sites: www.usaid.gov/who-we-are/agency-policy/ The Automated Directives System (ADS): details USAID's policies and procedures. (See Chapter 303 Grants and Cooperative Agreements.) www.usaid.gov/work-usaid/get-grant-or-contract/ Business Opportunities: provides descriptions of grant and contract processes, information on grant programs, and links to other acquisition and assistance resources, including forecasts of upcoming procurement opportunities with offices in Washington and overseas.

pvo.usaid.gov/usaid/ Registry of Private Voluntary Organizations: provides detailed information on PVOs currently registered with USAID via a searchable database. idea.usaid.gov/organization/ls/ Local Sustainability Division: provides an overview of the Division, which manages the Agency's registration policy, the PVO registration process, and various grant programs. idea.usaid.gov/ls/pvo/ PVO Registration: provides information on USAID's PVO registration process, including the Conditions of Registration, a description of the information and documentation required to complete an application for registration, and a link to the registration site. The VolAg Report is the culmination of the annual effort by the Office of Innovation and Development Alliances' Local Sustainability Division staff to collect, validate, and disseminate a clear, factual report that helps inform the Congress, Agency staff, partner organizations, and the general public about the activities of the PVO community. We hope you find it a useful resource.

Simple, low-cost water technologies increase income generation by allowing farmers to cultivate high-value, labor-intensive crops. These technologies have enabled families to become more efficient agricultural producers, generally doubling their net annual income in the first year.

Local community members from outside of Dalanzadgad, Mongolia, often travel into town to join in USAIDs entrepreneurial activities, including craft and furniture production, which results in skills building and economic strengthening. Camels are the preferred mode of travel into the local villages because they are able to carry many items, helping to ease the travel burden into Dalanzadgad. USAID Photo by James Orlando, 2007.
