Now More than Ever: Equity and Inclusion Are the Future of Aid I was astonished and honored to be invited to celebrate the Coalition for Racial and Ethnic Equity in Development’s 5th anniversary…

It's been a year of pain and resilience for so many affected by what happened to USAID. I was standing with other leaders on Capitol Hill exactly a year ago. What we said matters now more than ever. @oneaid.bsky.social @altusaid.altgov.info medium.com/p/now-more-t...
