USAID Resilience Policy

USAID is committed to strengthening resilience across all of its programs, ensuring communities can thrive despite shocks and stresses. This updated resilience policy expands the focus beyond food security to include climate, health, peace, and governance, addressing a wide range of risks. By investing in local systems and empowering communities, USAID is building stronger foundations for long-term well-being. The policy also emphasizes collaboration between humanitarian, development, and peace efforts to reduce crises and improve outcomes.
