USAID is gone. What's the future of international aid?

On July 1st, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) officially closed (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c307zq8ppj6o) its operations. It was the culmination of a months-long effort by the Trump administration to dismantle the agency, which had been in charge of administering U.S. foreign aid (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyezjwnx5ko) for over half a century. 


Why did President Trump make the dissolution  of USAID a priority? And what will it mean for the people and places around the world that have relied on foreign aid from the U.S.?


To answer these questions, Dan Richards spoke with Jennifer Hadden, a political scientist and associate professor at the Watson School, as well as co-author, with Sarah Sunn Bush, of the new book “Crowded Out: The Competitive Landscape of Contemporary International NGOs (https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/crowded-out/F1D45401DB33BCD4816E9E4F02F8F11B) .”


On this episode, they discuss the fate of USAID in the context of the broader international aid ecosystem. Specifically, they explore the evolving roles of international non-governmental organizations (INGO’s) in the foreign landscape, which have long worked with government agencies like USAID to deliver aid and assistance around the world. 


To many, it was surprising that USAID became such a target of the Trump administration. But as Hadden makes clear, Trump’s moves are part of a larger shift in the world of foreign aid — one with truly global implications.
