Other donors and USAID’s comparative advantage Sample Clauses

Other donors and USAID’s comparative advantage. The team’s recommendations also take into consideration the program areas of other donors, including both the areas in which other donors are not active and areas where they are active and the Mission can complement these activities.14 The Mission does not have a single niche, but there are several ways in which it has a significant comparative advantage. These are: 14 The team was not able to meet with every donor during its three-week visit to Colombo. The primary sources for the team’s knowledge of other donors’ activities are interviews with donors, a CIDA report on “Governance Programming in Sri Lanka” prepared in December 2000, and Xxxx Xxxxx’x summary of other donors’ DG activities (attached). • Because of the scope of its humanitarian, EG and DG programs, the Mission has relationships with a range of influential policymakers and opinion leaders. As a result, the Mission has a relatively high degree of credibility and convening power in both governmental and non-governmental circles. • Through the Asia Foundation, the Mission has been a major supporter of human and legal rights in Sri Lanka. This support has made a difference to many individuals and groups and has generated considerable “goodwill” for the Mission. • Many of the nominally “humanitarian” programs being supported by the USG increasingly have elements concerned with empowering citizens groups and imparting conflict resolution skills. • Through its use of its USPVO partners, USAID can make small, timely grants and provide needed technical assistance and expertise. USAID and its USPVO partners also have the ability to make available to Sri Lankans expertise from countries most relevant and useful to Sri Lanka. While the USG is not one of the largest donors in Sri Lanka, it is a major donor and equally important, both major political parties seek good relations with the US. Therefore, we assume that the USG, though the use of diplomatic channels and public statements, can have a degree of influence on government policies and actions that affect the DG environment.
