USAID Geospatial Strategy 2024-2028

Recognizing these critical opportunities, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is releasing its first-ever Geospatial Strategy. It envisions a future in which a geographic approach to development empowers USAID and its partners to apply all forms of data more effectively to advance international development and humanitarian assistance outcomes. The geographic approach is a process that brings together data and analytical expertise to better understand where development and disaster risk reduction needs are concentrated, where programs are implemented, and the effectiveness of those programs by geographic location.
