America’s Ground Game: How USAID is Changing and Why It Matters

Opening Remarks 

Rachel Glennerster, President, CGD

Featuring

Samantha Power, Administrator, United States Agency for International Development (USAID)

In conversation with 

Andrea Mitchell, Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent, NBC News

With its deep network of partnerships with communities, businesses, and governments around the world, the U.S. Agency for International Development is America’s foreign policy ground game. And in an era defined by transnational challenges and strategic competition, that ground game is more important than ever to America’s security and prosperity.  

Join CGD’s President Rachel Glennerster as she welcomes USAID Administrator Samantha Power who will deliver remarks on how the agency is evolving to meet the moment—and addressing the key geopolitical and development challenges of our time. After her speech, Administrator Power will sit down with NBC News Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent Andrea Mitchell for a fireside chat.
