USAID United States Agency for International Development ( Israel)

USAID is the principal U.S. government agency that administers the United States’ foreign assistance program in the West Bank and Gaza. The goal of our programs is the achievement of a just and lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, while addressing the aspirations of Palestinians for economic opportunity, effective governance, youth development, and humanitarian needs. USAID activities strengthen the accountability of public sector institutions; improve modern education and health approaches; target key infrastructure needs in water, wastewater treatment and sanitation, and road networks; build private sector-led development, investment, and employment growth; and expand the capacity to respond to critical humanitarian assistance needs in Gaza. These efforts help build a more democratic, stable, and secure region benefiting Palestinians, Israelis, and Americans.
