Early signs of US foreign aid reform; including Secretary Clinton’s first ever Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review (QDDR), support for both Howard Berman’s Initiating Foreign Assistance Reform Act of 2009 and its related bill launched by Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman John Kerry, as well as the continued effort by the Obama administration to change US development policy has all given cause for optimism and as such should not be ignored.
