A CGD note. The US has played the lead role in a global humanitarian effort responding to that demand, especially with regard to HIV, malaria, and nutrition, alongside maternal and child health. Reforms to US foreign assistance can both honor the compassionate imperative while also improving efficiency, country leadership, and a transition to country financing. But to do so, those reforms must account for the differing capacities of the countries that are part of the process, and design responses appropriately. The rollout of the new Global Health Strategy should be adjusted accordingly.
