The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is the lead U.S. Government agency that works to end extreme global poverty and enable resilient, democratic societies to realize their potential. The USAID mission states: We partner to end extreme poverty and promote resilient, democratic societies while advancing our security and prosperity.
USAID Office of Inspector General’s (OIG) oversight of USAID, the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), the United States African Development Foundation (USADF), the Inter‐American Foundation (IAF), and the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) helps ensure that the foreign assistance programs delivered by these agencies provide the aid needed around the world while also protecting U.S. taxpayers’ interests. The OIG’s mission is to protect and enhance the integrity of U.S. foreign assistance programs and operations administered by USAID, USADF, IAF, MCC, and OPIC. In its mission, OIG helps shape the success or failure of agency programs by assessing and recommending improvements in program planning, implementation, monitoring, and performance, as well as by working to detect and deter fraud, waste, and abuse.
