Monday, May 23, 2022

The Global Development Alliance (GDA) APS now has a successor, the Private
Sector Collaboration Pathway! We encourage you to visit the newly launched
Private Sector Collaboration Pathway page to learn more about this new tool for
partnering. The Private Sector Collaboration Pathway builds on the strengths of
the GDA APS, while providing new flexibilities and user experience improvements.
Everything that was possible under the GDA APS is now possible with the Private
Sector Collaboration Pathway. Hence, moving forward USAID strongly encourages
the use of the Private Sector Collaboration Pathway rather than the GDA APS
which will no longer be available after August 31, 2023.  

Please also check the Private Sector Collaboration Pathway Addenda page for
specific collaboration opportunities issued by USAID Missions, Bureaus &
Independent Offices. For any questions, please email pscp@usaid.gov(link sends
email).

> USAID recognizes the private sector as a powerful force in driving economic
> growth, creating jobs, and advancing opportunities that improve the well-being
> of people and communities worldwide. 

USAID is changing the way it does business to better support our partner
countries. Corporations, local companies, financial institutions, investment
firms, corporate foundations, cooperatives, business associations, and other
commercial entities play a vital role in achieving sustainable development and
growth in emerging economies.

By working together, USAID and the private sector can jointly identify, define,
and solve key business and development challenges and build mutually beneficial
partnerships that help us achieve our respective goals and objectives.


WHAT IS A GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT ALLIANCE (GDA)?

A Global Development Alliance (GDA) is a partnership where USAID and the private
sector work together to develop and implement market-based approaches to solve
development challenges. Activities under a GDA leverage and apply our respective
assets and expertise to advance core business interests, facilitate private
sector-led development, and drive sustained development impact. A GDA is just
one of several ways that USAID works with the private sector to advance
development progress.

USAID prioritizes pursuing market-based approaches and investment across all
areas of our work. Market-based approaches use business models and catalyze
markets to address development challenges sustainably and at scale.

 


CORE CHARACTERISTICS OF GDAS

Based on Complementary Interests and Objectives: GDAs are built at the
intersection of business interests and USAID development objectives. Determining
where our interests align provides a promising opportunity for the private
sector and USAID to explore how we can work together to address business
challenges and opportunities, while advancing sustainable development impact.

Market-Based Approaches and Solutions: GDAs aim to drive enterprise-led
development. In order to promote lasting results, GDAs advance market-driven
approaches to development that continuously generate valuable results over the
short, medium, and long term.

Extensive Co-Creation and Shared Responsibility: A GDA is a partnership that
involves extensive collaboration between USAID and the private sector. USAID and
the private sector jointly identify and define compelling business and
development challenges before collaborating to determine whether and how we can
achieve the greatest degree of business value and sustainable development
impact. We share risks and responsibilities, and work together to mobilize,
leverage, and more effectively apply our respective assets, expertise, and
resources. 

Private Sector Contributions for Increased Impact: GDAs must mobilize and
leverage private sector assets, expertise, capabilities, and resources at a
level that at least equals and preferably exceeds the value of resources
provided by USAID. Private sector contributions must foster significant
development results and impact.


BRINGING VALUE TO THE PRIVATE SECTOR

By working with USAID, businesses can leverage USAID’s capabilities, expertise,
networks, and other assets to advance their core interests and achieve greater
success. Collaboration under the GDA approach has enabled private sector
partners to improve supply chain quality and reliability, expand access to new
customer bases and markets, reduce operating costs, improve workforce
productivity, increase access to qualified and skilled talent, and enhance the
business enabling environment.

To learn more about the value propositions between USAID and the private sector,
please visit USAID and Private Sector Value Propositions and Market-based
Approaches.


INTERESTED IN EXPLORING A GDA? 

The Global Development Alliance (GDA) Annual Program Statement (APS) is USAID’s
invitation to the private sector to co-create market-driven approaches and
activities that advance business success and development impact. 

If your company or organization is interested in exploring or developing a GDA,
the first step is to contact the Private Sector Engagement (PSE) Point of
Contact in your country of interest. The PSE POC will work with you to determine
if a GDA is the appropriate way forward. For questions on the GDA approach,
please contact gda@usaid.gov(link sends email).
