The ONE Campaign welcomes this report and hopes that Congress follows up with legislative action.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have the chance to eliminate extreme poverty and preventable disease in this century.\u00a0 To maximize this moment of opportunity, we need to have a modernized, innovative aid system,&#8221; ONE President and CEO David Lane explained. &#8220;Development should be an integral part of our national security strategy and foreign policy but, instead, it is too often an after-thought. The challenges of poverty and preventable disease have changed dramatically in recent years, but our approach to development assistance has not.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Modernizing Foreign Assistance Network (MFAN) released its recommendations on Tuesday which include prioritizing and modernizing U.S. foreign assistance. MFAN&#8217;s report &#8212; &#8220;New Day, New Way: U.S. Foreign Assistance for the 21st Century&#8221; &#8212; suggests a new approach to meet today&#8217;s challenges in fighting extreme poverty and preventable disease.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Through innovative approaches like the Millennium Challenge Accounts and the results-oriented PEPFAR, America has proved that partnering with developing nations to fight poverty can work. This is the moment to take the lessons learned and apply them to create a more efficient, more comprehensive approach to U.S. development policy,&#8221; Lane explained. &#8220;We must smartly and effectively bring our foreign assistance program into the 21st century to better meet the challenges that we face in the world today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We look forward to working with our MFAN partners and the next Congress and administration to modernize and optimize U.S. foreign assistance,&#8221; said Lane.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"buffer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ONE Calls for 21st Century U.S. Aid System<\/p>\n<p>New Report Should Spark Congressional Focus on Aid Reform<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"contributor":[],"class_list":["post-52812","one_press","type-one_press","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
