Our Work

Through education, advocacy, and convening, MFAN works with Congress, the Executive branch, and other stakeholders to advance foreign assistance reforms that focus on long-term outcomes and impact, including new and innovative approaches and models for development.

Our Impact

Since our creation in 2008, MFAN has been a steady, clear, and unifying voice in Washington in advancing foreign assistance effectiveness reforms, regardless of the changing landscape or political leadership in Congress and the White House.

About Us

MFAN is a bipartisan reform coalition composed of international development and foreign policy practitioners, policy advocates, and experts from the U.S. and Global South.

Our Issues

MFAN supports a model of development that prioritizes accountability and evidence of impact and that gives greater voice, resources, and power over decision-making to local actors, who are best placed to deliver sustained results from U.S.taxpayer investments.
