Collaborating across Agencies to share expertise and build capacity to address community priorities.
The USAID-Peace Corps Global Interagency Agreement is a collaboration between USAID and the Peace Corps to share expertise in support of community-led development. The Global Agreement, like other USAID-Peace Corps interagency collaborations, harnesses the unique capabilities of both Agencies: Peace Corps’ experience of working closely with local organizations and communities often outside the reach of traditional development assistance, and USAID’s funding and technical expertise. These collaborations enhance the overall development impact of both Agencies. Designed in 2019, the Global Agreement consolidates country-level USAID-Peace Corps partnerships and streamlines requirements for Operating Units (OUs) in both Agencies.
