Every day, all over the world, USAID brings peace to those who endure violence, health to those who struggle with sickness, and prosperity to those who live in poverty. It is these individuals — these uncounted thousands of lives — that are the true measure of USAID’s successes and the true face of USAID's programs.
"Our dreams are very simple. To have a decent living that would allow us to be sufficient and not put out a hand to beg. We want people to look at us as humans, because we’re just like them."
Kultivimi i mjedrës është një biznes fitimprurës dhe që po merr hov në Kosovë. Ky është një lajm shumë i mirë në një vend që ka papunësinë më të lartë dhe një nga normat më të ulëta të eksporteve në Evropë.
South Sudan’s dwindling elephant population—there are only an estimated 2,500 remaining—is under threat from poachers who illegally sell their ivory tusks. Their precarious survival is threatened even more by conflict and lack of government resources.

Për Zgjedhjet për Kuvendin Kombëtar të qershorit 2014, USAID-i përmes projektit të tij Zbutja e Dhunës në Proceset Zgjedhore, angazhoi në terren 230 PAK për të vëzhguar qasjen në të gjitha aspektet e procesit zgjedhor. Kjo përfshinte jo vetëm votimin në ditën e zgjedhjeve, gjë që ishte një arritje në vete, por edhe një program që mund të shërbejë si pikë referimi – i pari i llojit të vet në botë – përmes së cilit u vëzhguan fushatat politike paraprake. Ky projekt implementohet në partneritet me Fondacionin Ndërkombëtar për Sisteme Zgjedhore dhe dy organizata vendore, HandiKOS dhe Institutin Demokratik të Kosovës.
Following the catastrophic floods in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) in May 2014, two U.S. Government agencies have been working together to deliver emergency supplies for flood victims, refurbish schools and rebuild playgrounds and youth camps.

A natural disaster is 30 times more likely to occur in the Pacific Islands than in the United States. Floods, droughts, tropical cyclones and other extreme weather events have forced people to cope with the devastating effects of a changing climate. Many of the region’s villages have not developed formal disaster response training, leaving families unprepared to survive catastrophic events.
