ForeignAssistance.gov

ForeignAssistance.gov is the U.S. government’s platform to advance the transparency, accessibility, and accountability of U.S. foreign assistance data. By publishing U.S. foreign assistance data that is accurate and timely, ForeignAssistance.gov presents a multi-dimensional picture of the U.S. foreign assistance lifecycle in a highly visual, interactive website. The eight datasets herein are regularly updated on an approximate monthly basis.

Designed to engage users across a wide range of backgrounds and levels of expertise, ForeignAssistance.gov empowers users to explore U.S. foreign assistance data through visualizations such as heatmaps, trends, bar charts, tree maps, and other graphs, while also providing the flexibility for users to create custom queries, download data, and conduct analyses by country, sector, or agency. Additionally, with the Development Cooperation Landscape dashboard, users may explore development activities in a country beyond what is provided by the U.S. government, as reported to the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI).

ForeignAssistance.gov collects and publishes foreign assistance data as reported by more than 20 U.S. government agencies that manage foreign assistance programs. In doing so, ForeignAssistance.gov fulfills aid transparency standards and reporting requirements, including the Foreign Aid Transparency and Accountability Act of 2016 (FATAA), Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act, and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Bulletin 12-01.

The new, consolidated ForeignAssistance.gov is a product of the Foreign Assistance Data and Reporting Team (FA-DART), a joint initiative by the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Agency for International Development.
