1: Recommandations

The ACVFA provides expert, relevant, and objective advice to USAID and other U.S. government agencies on matters related to the private voluntary community's role in international development and foreign assistance. The Agency Administrator uses the Committee as a sounding board and an ongoing source of advice and recommendations about USAID policies and programs. The Committee's public meetings serve as an established forum for the key constituency of PVOs and NGOs, as well as the general public to receive information about and participate in the Agency's decisionmaking process. The ACVFA provides analysis of foreign assistance issues, and makes recommendations for use not only by USAID, but by other government agencies, Congress, and the PVO/NGO community. The Committee's recommendations have resulted in greater understanding of and improvements in the working relationship between USAID and its partners.
