Publisher's Synopsis
The diplomacy and development efforts of the Department of State and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) continue to make significant strides toward a more secure, democratic and prosperous world for the benefit of the American people and the international community. The Department and USAID have developed more relevant, measureable, and outcome oriented indicators that are used to assess progress against prior-year performance through examining trend data. The results of these efforts to improve strategic planning and performance management throughout the Department and USAID, both domestically and abroad, are detailed in the accompanying State Operations and Foreign Assistance Appendices of the Congressional Budget Justification (CBJ).
