SID-United States

SID-US is a non-advocacy organization dedicated to providing a forum for knowledge sharing and networking for the international development community. This resource page was created to provide our members and the broader community with resources related to recent Executive Orders affecting international development. The purpose of this resource page is to provide accurate, up-to-date, and nonpartisan information on executive actions that impact foreign assistance, as well as guidance from our members and others on how to navigate the changes.

We hope that this page serves as a resource for our members, as well as for the public and others looking for government documents, directives, and help-aids for implementers. This resource page will prioritize transparency and factual reporting, ensuring users can access reliable information without advocacy or political bias.

Please check back often as we continue to update this page.
