Should USAID ultimately approve and implement its proposed Partner Vetting System, then we would expect that this new form will be utilized under that System as well.
USAID strives to be a prudent and responsible steward of U.S. taxpayers' resources and works with many capable and responsible partners in the U.S. and overseas who deliver assistance to communities in need. Therefore, one of the most important aspects of USAID's responsibility to U.S. taxpayers is to further ensure that the funds entrusted to USAID - and provided to our partners to further our international humanitarian and development work - are not inadvertently diverted to those who support, are aligned with or are affiliated with terrorists or terrorist organizations. The Partner Information Form will assist USAID in these efforts.
