   What programmes does USAID fund?   
      
   USAID funds more than 6,000 global programmes in health, education,   
   climate change, food security, humanitarian assistance, governance and   
   democracy.   
      
   Health   
      
   USAID supports PEPFAR for HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment, mainly in   
   Africa. It also funds initiatives against malaria, tuberculosis and   
   severe malnutrition. It also supports vaccine development and women's   
   reproductive health.   
      
   Democracy and Governance   
      
   Some 38% of USAID's budget promotes democracy and human rights, with   
   more than $14 billion allocated in 2023, focusing on Ukraine. Projects   
   strengthen media, civil society and anti-corruption efforts.   
      
   Humanitarian Assistance   
      
   In 2023, 22% of funds addressed humanitarian crises in countries like   
   Sudan and Ukraine, providing food, water, shelter and long-term   
   nutrition services.   
      
   Climate Change and Food Security   
      
   USAID collaborates to develop climate solutions, improve land   
   management, and invest in renewable energy. In Colombia, it enhances   
   climate resilience and promotes climate-smart agriculture.   
      
   Education   
      
   USAID supports teacher training, school management and scholarships,   
   with initiatives to increase girls' school enrolment in countries like   
   Mozambique and Nepal.
