Building Strong Communities
At the heart of USAID’s work is the core belief that each country must lead its own development journey. Under the Government to Government Operations (G2G Ops) program, Abt Global helps USAID and the Government of Senegal execute this vision. We’re reinforcing the national government’s stewardship role, providing incentives for domestic resource mobilization, and strengthening local capacity to manage health, education, water, and sanitation resources.
The project supports USAID and the Ministries of Health and Social Action, Education, and Water and Sanitation in improving functionality and effectiveness. With G2G Ops, Senegal's health, education, and water and sanitation sectors enhance processes and systems to accelerate gains in access to quality services and sustain systemic advances.
Our implementing partners are Association Conseil pour l'Action, ACA African Resources Group, ARG Conseil des Organisations Non Gouvernementales d'Appui au Développement au Sénégal, and CONGAD.
